THE 11th Australian Charities Report reveals strong growth in the sector, with charity revenue reaching a record $222B—up 10.7%—and staff numbers increasing by over 70,000. Charities now employ 1.54 million people, outpacing construction and manufacturing. Volunteer numbers rose to 3.77 million. While revenue growth was led by extra large charities, many small charities struggled. Rising demand, driven by cost-of-living pressures, continues to challenge capacity.
