The Benchmarking Project

Your data tells the story. The Benchmarking Project is a respected source of truth in the charitable fundraising sector. We help fundraisers, fundraising leaders and their boards make informed decisions and uplift their programs. We do this by providing data-driven knowledge, practical guidance, and community support. We are also supported by fundraising experts who offer valuable thought leadership and know-how to our members. The Benchmarking Project benchmarks transactional fundraising data from 50+ charities in Australia and Aotearoa New Zealand. We run this data through hundreds of metrics to identify trends. We use this data to formulate a wide range of fundraising insights, from the macro down to the micro. We share these insights with our community through reporting, forums, workshops, and articles.
