DanChurchAid in 2025

In 2025, DCA reached 4.9 million people with direct support.

Direct support spreads like ripples in water. When we distribute food rations to a parent, the entire family benefits. When a village gains access to clean water, it strengthens the whole community.

Overall, in 2025, we indirectly improved the living conditions of an additional 10.3 million people in the world’s conflict zones.

Record turnover despite challenging times

2025 was a turbulent year that shook the entire development and humanitarian sector. The year began with the dismantling of USAID, followed by a number of European countries implementing dramatic cuts in support to the world’s poorest people.

This had severe consequences for DCA, our partners and the people we seek to support.

However, despite a difficult start to 2025 with long term repercussions, DCA succeeded in securing higher turnover in 2025 than ever before.

DCA is present in 20 countries where the needs are greatest.
Our largest country programme is in South Sudan, where approximately DKK 142.6 million was spent in 2025.

Fundraising, information and personnel

In 2025, personnel and operating costs for our headoffice and country offices amounted to DKK 65.5 million.

Expenditures for information and fundraising amounted to DKK 92.8 million.

The total result was DKK 2.1 million.

In 2025, DCA’s administrative expenses amounted to 4.8%. This represents a decrease compared to 2024. The reduction is primarily due to DCA responding promptly with cost cutting measures and a recruitment freeze in the first months of the year, as a direct consequence of the US decision to dismantle USAID.

Income by donors and partners

A significant amount of DKK 212.2 million in 2025 came from private donors, such as donations from the public in Denmark as well as profits from the second-hand and Wefood stores that DCA operates in Denmark.

DKK 909.8 million came from institutional donors, the largest being Danida.
