A nonprofit group yesterday harshly criticized the Boston Foundation and a Boston College center for attacking its past studies on charitable donations and undermining a fellow charity's efforts to promote giving.

The Catalogue for Philanthropy, in its annual "Generosity Index", routinely ranks Massachusetts at the bottom of national donation lists, based on average gross income of residents compared to their charitable tax write-offs. "
