“To God Be the Glory!”: Record-Breaking Generosity in 2024

Thanks to the generosity of God’s people, Barnabas Foundation recorded an unprecedented volume of giving in 2024, smashing all previous years’ records for gifts received and distributed through the Foundation.

In total, Barnabas Foundation clients distributed more than $106 million in 2024 to 2,832 charitable organizations close to their hearts. There was a 14.3 percent increase in total number of distributions compared to 2023, which previously held the record for grant distributions in a single year.

“What an amazing year!” said James Bakke, J.D., executive director of Barnabas Foundation. “We have the privilege of serving some of the most generous and faithful people in the world. To God be the glory!”

Of the total charitable funds distributed, $76.8 million was given through Barnabas Foundation’s Stewards Fund (a Christian donor-advised fund) benefiting 2,730 different charities. The Stewards Fund provides a simple, streamlined and tax-wise option for people to give cash, stock, real estate and other non-cash assets to their favorite causes.

Since its founding in 1976, Barnabas Foundation has helped thousands of individuals and families transfer more than $1 billion to the causes close to their hearts.

“What a joy it is to serve so many people who live with open hands and open hearts,” says Bakke. “We are honored to be part of their story.”
