Abstract
Description
The purpose of this study is to improve the understanding both of the capacity of rural residents to make charitable gifts and of the differences in charitable giving between rural and urban households. Specifically, the Center on Philanthropy at Indiana University conducted this study to examine patterns of charitable giving between rural and urban households using the 2005 Center on Philanthropy Panel Study (COPPS), a nationally representative sample of more than 8,000 households, and a combined dataset drawn from studies about household giving in different parts of the United States.
