Charity Fraud Survey 2024

BDO LLP

Client: Fraud Advisory Panel

The Charity Fraud Survey, Report, and Conference drives social change by raising awareness of the prevalence and impact of fraud within the charity sector and advocating for stronger fraud prevention measures. The ultimate goal is to create a sector that is more resilient to fraud, ensuring that charities can focus their resources on delivering their missions rather than dealing with financial losses due to fraudulent activities.

By highlighting the risks and consequences of fraud, the initiative encourages a culture of vigilance and accountability within charities. It advocates for better internal controls, greater transparency, and a proactive approach to fraud prevention. The broader social change it aims to achieve is a more ethical, secure, and trusted charity sector, where donor trust is protected, and the resources available for charitable causes are maximized.

Through the Charity Fraud Survey, Report, and Conference, the BDO initiative hopes to spark conversations, influence policy, and empower charity leaders with the knowledge and tools needed to combat fraud effectively, thereby strengthening the sector’s integrity and impact on society.
