World Giving Index 2011 (is a global view of giving trends.)
Conclusions:
-Despite economic turmoil giving behaviour have increased.
-The increase is from helping strangers/volunteering rather than money, (which has decreased).
-Prosperity and giving does not necessarily go hand in hand.
-While Asia has seen greatest increase in giving, USA is currently world's most giving nation.
See the rest, quite interesting.
