About the Survey

The #CCSIndex is an ongoing benchmarking study of the “do
good” revolution. It tracks a variety of trends in charitable giving and
conscious consumerism, including the importance consumers are placing
on purchasing from socially responsible companies, actions taken to
support such products and services, and future intent to increase the
amount they spend with responsible organizations.
