For seven consecutive years, an English charity Charity Aid Foundation Ranks World Charity. In 2016, 140 countries entered it. They are estimated by averaging the percentage of people in each country who donated money to charity, volunteered, or helped strangers in the previous month. To obtain relevant reports, residents of the countries participating in the ranking were interviewed as part of a study by the Gallup Institute (Gallup World Poll).

Russia is on the 126th place in this list, it was overtaken by Belarus (100th place) and Ukraine (106th place). And the least generous state in the world was China.

We present you the top 10 most generous and kind countries.

10. United Arab Emirates

Charitable activities in this country are aimed at disseminating religious culture and helping Muslims in need. The UAE has one of the largest charitable foundations in the world - the Mohammed bin Rashid Al-Maktoum Foundation. And in 2015, a billionaire from the Al Gureyr family donated 1/3 of his fortune (it amounts to 6.4 billion dollars) for philanthropic purposes.

9. Ireland

The Irish know a lot not only about good beer and whiskey, but also about helping other people. In this small country, on every corner there are advertisements for charity evenings, fundraising for various good deeds, and a lot of charity shops (charity shops) have been created that take things for those in need and donate their profits to charity.

8. Great Britain

69% of respondents said they donated money to charity. In 2015, 75% of respondents said this. In addition, 61% of the British helped strangers (compared with 63% last year), and 33% volunteered, compared to 32% in the 2015 charity rating. Nevertheless, despite the decline in the number of philanthropists, the UK maintains its position as one of the best countries in the world and the most generous in Europe.

7. Indonesia

This developing country is in third place among the most philanthropic countries in Asia. And let the level of well-being of its residents is low, with sincerity and a desire to help their neighbor, they are all more than good.

6. Canada

Sixth “overall” Canada is the second of the most generous countries in North America.

5. Sri Lanka

Some of the most generous countries in the world are among the most disadvantaged. These include Sri Lanka. The tsunami there is a familiar phenomenon. However, the worst happened in 2004, when waves 15 meters high as if giant tongues "licked" into the ocean settlements of the Sri Lankans, located along the coast. The casualties amounted to 40 to 60 thousand people. In many respects, the inhabitants of the island, sensitive to the mercies of nature, are sensitive to each other, helping as much as possible.

4. New Zealand

Together with the "neighbor" Australia, this country is one of the most generous corners of the Earth. 71% of respondents reported their donations to various charities, 61% disinterestedly helped strangers, and 44% of New Zealand residents were volunteers.

3. Australia

There are Australians who support charity in original ways. For example, Australian firefighters starred for the charity calendar, exposing their muscular torsos. The delighted audience appreciated this, and the funds raised from the sale of the calendar (more than $ 1.3 million) went to the aid of children's hospitals.

2. USA

The country of freedom and democracy has maintained its second place in the ranking, with a total score of 61%. About three-quarters of Americans (73%) reported having helped a stranger at least once, 46% volunteered, and 63% donated to various charitable foundations.

1. Myanmar

Long-term leader in the ranking of the most generous states in the world. Myanmar's first place is largely due to the high level of participation in charity events (91%) and volunteering (55%), although there is an increase in the proportion of people helping strangers (63%). In this country, the population follows a Buddhist school called Theravada. She encourages donations to those who lead a monastic lifestyle. This practice is known as the Sangha Dana. Charity thus has significant religious meaning and small frequent acts of charity are the norm for Myanmar residents.

World charity rating is unique in thatthat he considers factors that do not directly correlate with the economic development or standard of living of a particular country, but are important in determining the attitude to charity on an individual basis. It is interesting to note that traditional or religious customs may influence this rating more than economic prosperity.
