Things are looking up for smaller organisations needing #donations, according to the latest figures from giving platform @givenownews, which revealed a 5% spike compared to this time last year. #fundraising #notforprofits #charity

I've been watching this case for a while now, so it's disappointing to see it fizzle out this way. It'll be interesting to see how the NFP and charity sector reacts.
Australia's privacy watchdog, the @OAICgov has scrapped an investigation into a massive data breach in which details of up to 50,000 donors from 70 charities was leaked onto the dark web. #AusPol #charities
