The 2015 Annual Report on the State of Philanthropy in Serbia is part of a broader initiative to promote and stimulate philanthropy in Serbia and the region carried out by the Trag Foundation and Catalyst Balkans. The underlying research and this publication were created by Catalyst Balkans in cooperation with Trag Foundation, and with the generous support of the C.S. Mott Foundation, Balkan Trust for Democracy (BTD) and United States Agency for International Development (USAID). The views expressed here are those of the authors and do not necessarily represent or reflect the views of USAID or the Government of the United States of America.

Given that the value of the donation in Serbia was reported in only 35.8% of the instances, estimation about the total amount donated is made by extrapolation based on the known data.
