Troubling times for charitable groups

Charitable givings are going down.

You don’t have to be a rocket scientist to know that. Just read the newspapers. Or talk to people. But finally, it has made it’s way to the top level.

According to the Yearbook of American and Canadian Churches, a publication that studies these things, charitable giving has dropped to levels not seen in 80 years. You have to go back to the Great Depression of the 1930s to find a time when people gave as little to charity as they do today.
