Where Our Area Gives

Fidelity Charitable recently came out with a fascinating study of Americans' charitable giving, looking at what charities people in different metropolitan areas are most likely to support. The New York/Northern New Jersey area ranked near the top of many of the lists, ranking number one in one area: People from around here are most likely to give to international affairs organizations.

Other areas of giving where we rank highly:
  • Society Benefit (including civil rights, community improvement, social advocacy and volunteer organizations): 2nd
  • Education: 4th
  • Health: 5th
  • Arts and Culture: 6th
  • Human Services (nonprofits that provide basic, daily care including food banks, homeless shelters and youth programs): 10th
