Grantmaking teams are facing a crisis of confidence. Benevity Impact Labs’ latest Grants Confidence Gap report revealed that while 74% of companies believe they follow best practices in grantmaking, only about half feel they’re performing well across key areas like strategic alignment, stakeholder engagement, innovation, and communication. The result? A widening gap between effort and impact.
