A fascinating recent report called the Charitable Giving in the USA 2019 report sheds some light on Americans and their giving patterns. According to the report, 62% of American surveyed gave money in the last 12 months. This is up from 55% the year before. They also found that people are giving more of their time and energy (not just their money) as more than 35% of people volunteered last year (while 31% did in 2017).
The mean amount that was donated last year was $461, which was a rise from the previous amount of $382. Learn more about the findings and how people are giving today.
