Did you see the 10th annual report Australian Charities Report? It’s a great resource to share with your Board - especially those who aren't actively involved in the NFP or charity sector and might not be across the major trends. Of interest to us at Benefolk was: 📈 Unlike 2021, all charity sizes experienced revenue growth in 2022 💵 Total revenue increased by $11 billion to a record $200 billion, but at the same time expenses increased by $21 billion. 😲 The net income figure recorded across the sector – $5.7 billion – was the lowest figure the ACNC has ever reported. ✳ While the sector’s assets grew by 8.3% to $457 billion during 2022, total liabilities increased by 11.5% to reach $158 billion. 💳 In 2022, the charity sector’s total expenses increased by $22 billion (12.6%) to $195.8 billion. The increase of 12.6% was twice the rate of inflation. We are grateful to Sue Woodward AM and her team at Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission for ensuring this data continues to be shared widely with all Australians, to help us better understand our important charitable sector.
