Giving Gets Its Groove Back—But Grooves a Little Differently - Press - AFP

Giving Gets Its Groove Back—But Grooves a Little Differently - Press - AFP: There is SOME not so good news: not all categories of charity have rebounded. But the reality is that giving is up by more than four percent in the US, according to the newly released Giving USA report that looks at giving levels from 2013.

Giving USA: The Annual Report on Philanthropy for the Year 2013 highlights the estimated giving totals by Americans throughout the year 2013. The “estimation” is due to the slight fluctuation that may happen over the next two years based on additional input from the IRS. But, for the time being, giving in 2013 is reported to have reached $335.17 billion, which is the highest it has been since the Great Recession in 2009.
