Donations to causes for racial and social justice from American households rose by 16 percent in 2020, largely from Black and Asian households, per a new study.
Donations to causes for racial and social justice from American households rose by 16 percent in 2020, largely from Black and Asian households amid numerous social justice protests that took place during the year, according to the Associated Press.
"A lot of the attention, so far, on giving to racial, social justice has been on foundations and the corporate side, but it's also important to realize that everyday donors — households of all different backgrounds — have been part of this," said the associate dean for research and international programs at the Lilly School, Una Osili.
The study found the bump in giving was driven by contributions among all demographic groups, though it noted Asian American and Black households were more likely to donate to such causes than their white counterparts. "It is a new moment in this country, and the world, around racial reckoning and Asian Americans are actually a part of that," said Patricia Eng, the president of the advocacy organization Asian Americans/Pacific Islanders in Philanthropy.
