How to use this page responsibly.
This is a curated reference page, not original research. It uses the latest publicly available national figures identified in the sources below. Dollar amounts are reported in current dollars unless the statistic says otherwise.
Giving USA measures charitable giving by source and recipient category. AmeriCorps reports national civic engagement findings from the Current Population Survey Civic Engagement and Volunteering Supplement, conducted with the U.S. Census Bureau. Their reporting periods differ, so figures should not be combined as though they came from one survey.
