Item 2025 Communities of Color Index Report(2025-06-04) Indiana University Lilly Family School of PhilanthropyThe inaugural Communities of Color Index (CCI) is the first systematically generated landscape of charitable organizations in the U.S. specifically focused on serving communities of color. This first report includes giving data from 2012 to 2022, and offers crucial insights into the characteristics of these organizations and trends in philanthropic giving by individuals, foundations, and corporations. Fundraisers and nonprofit leaders can use the CCI to benchmark their organizations and inform fundraising strategies. Donors and grantmakers can leverage the CCI to identify funding patterns and gaps to guide their giving strategies. Additionally, the CCI serves as a resource for scholars and researchers seeking to explore broader trends in philanthropy and charitable giving to communities of color. The CCI is a project of the Lilly Family School of Philanthropy’s Equitable Giving Lab, an initiative of the school that measures charitable giving to historically under-resourced groups.Item 2025 Communities of Color Index Infographic(2025-06-04) Indiana University Lilly Family School of PhilanthropyItem LGBTQ+ Index 2024: Measuring Giving To LGBTQ+ Organizations Infographic(Indiana University Lilly Family School of Philanthropy, 2024-04) School of Philanthropy, Indiana University Lilly FamilyThe LGBTQ+ Index is the only comprehensive index of charitable organizations in the U.S. that serve LGBTQ+ causes and communities.
