Less Than One-third of Congregations Report Decline in Giving in First Half of 2009
In new study of 1,500 congregations, most said fundraising increased or held steady, but the number experiencing declines grew compared to 2008
The 2009 Congregational Economic Impact Study, with 1,540 respondents, is not a nationally representative study of all congregations in the U.S., but rather is drawn primarily from the Alban Institute’s membership. More than three-fourths of respondents were from Protestant denominations.
