Giving it Away: the economics of charities

Published on ABC on November 16, 2017.

Charities bring in 134 billion dollars a year in Australia and employ over a million people. The sector accounts for 8.3 percent of our GDP, so it’s no small change.

The economics of charities on this week’s episode of The Money.
