A Roy Morgan Single Source has found that 60% of Australians aged +14 donated to charity in the year to December 2018, compared with 61.8% in 2017 and 66% in 2014. In addition, the average amount donated is now $486, up only marginally from $460 in 2014 and representing a decline in real terms after allowing for inflation. The survey also shows that 70.1% of Australians aged 50-64 give to charity, ahead of those aged 35-49 (68.9%) and the 65+ age group (68.3%). These age groups are well ahead of all segments under the age of 35. The Single Source survey is based on in-depth personal interviews conducted face-to-face with over 50,000 Australians in their homes, including over 9,000 who have donated to charity over the last 12 months.
