Giving Better Toolkit

Success should not only be measured by growth and profitability, but also by the positive contribution a company makes to the society around it. The Giving Better Toolkit turns that belief into action: a practical framework that helps businesses move beyond one-off donations and build a giving strategy that is intentional, effective, and built to last.

Whether you are one of Malta's largest companies, an SME or a young start-up, the Toolkit gives you the tools to turn good intentions into real, measurable impact.

Why giving in Malta needs to change

At our Giving Better Conference 2026, business leaders, NGOs and experts came together to ask a hard question: is Malta actually giving well?

The data told a clear story. Malta's giving ecosystem is generous but fragmented: thousands of NGOs competing for attention, most corporate giving budgets stretched thin, and support that too often stops as soon as a project ends. Meanwhile, some of the causes that matter most to Malta's future (the environment, mental health, social inequality) are consistently the ones left under-supported.

The conclusion was unanimous: Malta doesn't need more giving; it needs better giving. More coordinated, more strategic, and built on real partnership between businesses, NGOs, philanthropists and communities.

The Giving Better Toolkit is the Academy's answer to that call.

What the Toolkit gives you

This isn't another report to read and shelve. The Giving Better Toolkit is a hands-on, practical resource built around real worksheets, checklists and tools your team can actually use to shape a giving strategy from the ground up.

It helps you to:

• Define your priorities — get clear on the causes and values that should drive your giving
• Choose the right partners — identify NGOs and initiatives that are genuinely aligned with your goals
• Move beyond the chequebook — discover how time, expertise and resources can be just as valuable as money
• Measure what matters — set targets that track real outcomes, not just spend
• Communicate with credibility — report on your impact in a way that builds trust, not just PR

Structured as a practical, step-by-step journey, from clarifying your purpose right through to reporting your impact. The Toolkit gives businesses of any size a clear starting point and a framework to keep coming back to.
