Business Support for the Arts Is Up

Business support for the arts was up between 2009 and 2012, with cash plus non-cash giving increasing 18 percent, says the BCA National Survey of Business Support for the Arts recently released by Americans for the Arts. The survey examined the giving habits of 600 small, midsize, and large U.S. companies. One stand-out statistic: 66% of respondents said that they hadn't been asked to contribute to the arts.
