Merry Christmas, Hanukkah Sameach, Joys of the Season!
Thank you for making 2019 a tremendous year to cap off a spectacular decade.
Highlights of 2019:
- Website visits exceed 512,600 making Charity Intelligence donors' "go-to trusted source for information on Canadian charities". It has become one of the most visited charity websites in the world.
- Maclean's, the Globe and Mail, and MoneySense said Charity Intelligence is "a leading source of information on the real-world impact of Canadian giving" and "the most complete and accurate information about charity finances in the country".
- Currently, we have impact analysis completed on 203 charities - 547 to go! We believe Charity Intelligence is the world's most used, most relevant impact analysis of charities. Charity Intelligence's Top 10 impact lists remain the most popular post with donors.
- In 2019, we updated 457 charity reports so you have the most recent and relevant information to make your giving decisions. From this, we repeated the 2019 Top 100 Highest Rated Charities list.
- A new website to handle more visits, with a modern, more engaging layout so you can better find information on charities, whether using a desktop or a smartphone.
As 2019 comes to an end, many, many thanks to all of you. Ten years ago most said doing charity research was pointless, "who cares", "who takes the time to research a charity". Well, hundreds of thousands of Canadians care passionately about their giving, being informed, and giving for impact.
Your support makes charity research, ratings and reports happen - and helps transform Canadian giving.
Best wishes for 2020,
Your Ci Team
