Mississippi still ranks at the top of the nation when it comes to charitable giving. That word from Secretary of State Eric Clark as he released the Ninth Annual Comprehensive Financial Report on Charties Operating in Mississippi.

This year's report is the first to contain financial information on charitable giving since Hurricane Katrina. Secretary Clark said, 'All of y'all know that Mississippi ranks at or near the top every year in what's called the generosity index that our people are always about the most generous in the country in terms of giving to church and charity as a percentage of our income..'"
