Giving to All Charities Barely Kept Pace with Inflation in 1990, but Donations to Education Rose by 13%.

McMillen, Liz

Chronicle of Higher Education, v37 n39 pA25-26 Jun 12 1991

Donations to education rose considerably higher than inflation last year, unlike giving in most other areas. Factors fueling a slowdown in giving include recession, a sluggish stock market, a slowed rate of increase in the population of Americans aged 35 to 64, and a declining rate in personal income growth.
