Analysis
NAICS 8132 is the 2022 industry group for grantmaking and giving services, part of 813 (Religious, Grantmaking, Civic, Professional, and Similar Organizations).
It has only one more detailed code, 81321, which covers exactly the same activities; the definition, index entries and statistics are on that page.
County Business Patterns counts 21,717 US establishments in this code in 2023, employing 209,473 people at an average annual payroll of $81,713 per employee (70th percentile of national industries). 69% of the establishments have fewer than five employees, which marks it as a small-business industry.
Between 2018 and 2023 the number of establishments grew 5% and employment rose 7%. The 2018 count used NAICS 2017, so part of a large move can come from codes being redefined rather than from businesses opening or closing.
By establishments it ranks 4th of the 5 codes at this level within Religious, Grantmaking, Civic, Professional, and Similar Organizations, with 7% of them.
