Giving USA has released their annual report on charitable giving in the United States. Among the findings, while charitable giving surpassed $300 billion for the second year in a row, it represents a 2 percent decline in current dollars over 2007. This is only the third decline in current dollars since Giving USA began publishing its annual report in 1956.
