Giving USA 2004, released in June 2004, reported that Americans gave $240.72 billion to charity in 2003, an increase of 2.8% over 2002 figures. Charitable giving has a measurable impact on the U.S. economy; the 2003 contribution figures represented 2.19% of the United States gross domestic product (GDP).
