NEW YORK - Americans gave more money to charity in 2004 than the year before, and it looks like that generosity is still growing.
The 400 largest U.S. charities saw donations rise 11.6 percent last year from 2003, according to the Chronicle of Philanthropy, a newspaper that tracks philanthropy and charitable organizations. The United Way of America was the top fundraising group in 2004, the Chronicle said."
