Donors could be suffering from 'crisis fatigue' warns development expert - Civil Society - Fundraising - News - providing news and in-depth coverage of charities, voluntary organisations and not-for-profits: Only 32 per cent of the British public have made a donation in relation to the current Horn of Africa famine, compared with 43 per cent who donated to help those affected by the floods in Pakistan and 49 per cent who gave to the Haiti earthquake appeals last year, according to new research.

The analysis from the UK Public Opinion Monitor (UKPOM) and the Institute of Development Studies involved 1,492 people from a broad demographic who complete surveys for UKPOM every six to eight weeks.
