More than 61 million Americans donated their time to charity last year, the lowest number of volunteers in five years, according to new data from the federal government.
The figure represents a drop from the 65.4 million people who said they volunteered in 2005, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, about 4.4 million more than in 2006. Last year's number of volunteers was the lowest since 2002, when the federal government first began collecting such data."
