Charities Aid Foundation

And I guess I, I'm just curious about whether or not that, you know, extends beyond spaces of faith and space of, you know, church spaces or faith spaces, whatever it is.

Actually, if, if we apply that just to kind of our secular spaces, if we talk about giving, will it increase? Because the CAF data of kind of, Charity Aid Foundation data and their giving report of kind of the decreasing decline of giving, you know, we're about to hit a threshold point in, in my generation, certainly of 25 to 34-year-olds, we're, we're on that 52% now are giving regularly.

That's down from 61% 10 years ago, and I think it's just interesting we're about to hit that 50 p- well, if it continues, we could be getting to a point where it's actually the minority of people in our country give to charity, and I think that's a real, that would mark a real shift in behavior actually.

We're wanting to reverse this trend.

Mm

... you know? I, I mean, and, and how many of us can do that, even if we wanted to? If, I pointed out in my blog that the Charities Aid Foundation has highlighted in their giving report that people are struggling, and are not as a re- and as a result, have not been donating much money to charities.

So of course, charities was another thing that I raised in my blog and said, "Oh, yeah, there are some horse welfare charities that could help, and they could provide the s- be one of the solutions to this problem." But of course, they're struggling too because they are, uh, people are currently enduring a cost of living crisis.

They're not giving charities as much as they used to.
