Survey Says: Americans Not Giving As Charitably

World Vision conducted their 5th annual survey on annual giving, and survey says that Americans are less likely to give a charitable gift around thanksgiving and christmas than they were last year.  

World Vision is a Washington based Christian Relief and developed organization that polled 1,012 U.S.adults and 1,000 Canadians over the age of 18.  The survey also showed that about 59% of respondents will spend less money on holiday presents as a result of the current economic climate.
