    For the first time in nearly two decades, only half of U.S. households donated to a charity, a study found. Donations to charitable causes are reaching record highs, but it’s being driven by an increasingly smaller slice of the population.http://apne.ws/QiiqlAt

        I wonder how much of that charitable giving was to mega churches? This could be a good thing, to my thinking.

        plus, many of us were donating what we could spare to political campaigns.

        How much of that is to church charities vs. non-religious charities?

        Charity starts at home, during a Pandemic households may have needed all their spare cash for themselves

        That's because most of us don't have the money to donate.

        Take away the tax deduction for charitable giving and see what happens.

        That’s what happened. Standard deduction was raised starting 2018 (the yr of AP’s study). There was less incentive for people to claim the charitable tax deduction, and hence donate money, increasing the cost of donating by 7%.https://www.taxpolicycenter.org/briefing-book/how-did-tcja-affect-incentives-charitable-giving …
