Giving USA 2007

Giving USA 2007, a publication of the Giving USA Foundation that is researched and written at the Center on Philanthropy, covers estimated giving in 2006, which reached $295.02 billion, setting a new record. Giving is 2.2 percent of gross domestic product, remaining for another year above the 40-year average of 1.8 percent.

This year's edition also includes revisions to the estimates of giving to seven of the nine types of recipient organizations, based on analysis of IRS Forms 990 for 1989 through 2004.
