Charitable Donations? Who gives more?

Charitable Donation mean: A gift made by an individual or an organization to a nonprofit organization, charity or private foundation. Charitable donations are commonly in the form of cash, but can also take the form of real estate, motor vehicles, appreciated securities, clothing and other assets or services. Charitable donations often represent the primary source of funding for many charitable organizations and nonprofit organizations.In most countries, a charitable donation made by an individual will provide him or her with an income tax deduction.

Very difficult to say. A recently conducted (and highly publicized) study concluded that Conservatives gave more to charitable causes than Liberals or Moderates. But the study has been largely disputed as faulty in its logic and conclusions (see my source link below for the full story).

I think the biggest issue is what you would consider a charity. For example, if you consider a family's church "charity", then this would significantly raise the percentage of Conservative families who give to "charity". Personally, I find that church contributions are no more charitable than paying dues at a racquet club or social group.

The dues largely go to build facilities and throw events for the direct benefit of the congregation. And this is but one example of how the ideas of "charity" can vary greatly, and how it is difficult to measure such things. Plus, I'd like to think that the best people in America give a lot in labor and money to real charitable causes without telling a soul about it - especially for the purposes of statistical data.

You know what I mean?

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
