Giving Report Malta

After the wide success of last year’s edition, the Academy of Givers has embarked again on a journey to gather comprehensive data from businesses and NGOs across Malta, which would then be analysed and compiled into Malta’s second Giving Report.

Once again, this initiative aims to unveil crucial insights into how businesses give back to the community and extend their support to NGOs, as well as the underlying motivations behind these philanthropic endeavors. The report will provide new recommendations on the way forward of Giving in Malta.

A first of its kind on the island, this report was born from the need to gather data on the giving activity in the private sector: who gives funds and support, to whom, and the reasons why. Studies like the Giving Report are crucial in the context of the European Union’s new Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), that expands the scope of current sustainability reporting, requiring businesses to disclose their social impact and ensuring they contribute positively to the well-being of their employees, customers, and communities.

Further expanding on the data collected last year and comparing results, the Giving Report allows us to keep track of the current trends of the Giving Sector in Malta, as well as raise awareness on the gaps and challenges that NGOs face when dealing with fundraising and support needed, and on the role businesses have in supporting the work of NGOs. The report also focuses on recommendations on how we should be giving in Malta, moving beyond just financial support, and seeing how best to share resources and expertise to have a positive impact and improve the social and environmental situation of Malta. It will promote efficiency and a foundation to develop the sector and create long-term impact.

In this report, we look at different ways businesses give back, taking into account CSR, philanthropy and giving as any form of support – both financial and non-financial – given to NGOs (locally registered Voluntary Organisations), or to social/environmental initiatives, to achieve their mission.

Businesses and Not-for-profit Organisations are invited to actively participate in this initiative by filling out a survey, providing valuable data that will contribute to a better understanding of the giving landscape in Malta.‍
