Abstract
This article reports the background to a new initiative by the Institute of Fundraising in the United Kingdom to supply the public with information with respect to charity costs and in particular the costs of fundraising. The initiative is described, and the results of a recent benchmarking survey of the Top 500 Fundraising Charities that will be used to underpin it are reported. The mean cost of raising £1 was found to be £0.21. © 2009 Sage Publications.
