FY2011 - FY2016
Report on US Faith-based NGO finance for International Assistance
Faith-based NGOs are known to contribute substantial resources—financial, technical, human, and in-kind—to poverty alleviation, health care provision, and relief of suffering through international development activities and humanitarian assistance. In FY 2016 FBOs the largest US FB NGOS raised $6.79 billion of which 17% was from public sources and the remainder from private sources.
Quantifying FBO revenues for overseas development and their sources remains challenging. The reports are based on research that uses publicly available IRS 990 forms to quantify the private and public revenues and expenditures of US faith-based NGOs from FY 2011 to 2016. Jean Duff led this project under the auspices of the Center for Faith and the Common Good, with funding from Advocates for Development Assistance.
