Congressman Gets Mad After Finding Out Americans Are Less Charitable Than He Thought: Rep. Kelly was accurately referring to the 2013 World Giving Index, published by the Charities Aid Foundation (CAF), which clearly ranks the United States as No. 1 among the world's most generous nations," Qualtere said. "The full report by CAF states plainly that the U.S. 'once again tops the index' and affirms that 'proportionally more Americans gave in some way than in any other country.' A quick and honest Google search by Mr. Blumenauer or anyone else could've revealed this."
Indeed, the report ranks Americans at the top overall, thanks to a No. 1 score in helping strangers, No. 3 in volunteering and No. 13 in donating money, which was the topic of discussion at the Ways and Means hearing.
