The second group surveyed was those who had access to a WGP but opted not to participate. They were queried about their decision; what they looked for in a successful WGP and what might motivate them to participate in the future. They placed high value on the transparency, financial accountability and reliability
of charity partners, indicating that they would need to know how their money was being spent and that it
was being spent by trustworthy organisations. Salary and income was also a big impediment to participation. Similar to the previous group, non-participants placed high value on donation matching and being able to see the impact their charitable donations were making.
