charitable funding

Nonprofit financial backing

Charitable funding is money given to support nonprofit organizations or causes—donations, grants, and philanthropic contributions that sustain charities and their work.

The term appears in discussions of nonprofit finance and tax policy: The hospital relies heavily on charitable funding.

It can refer to both the act of giving and the pool of money available: Charitable funding for the arts has declined.
