Did you know Which Country Gives the Most Charity? Here we are presenting the list of top ten Top ten Most Charitable Countries of the world.

1. 10 MOST GENEROUS
COUNTRIES IN THE WORLD

2. Myanmar
A massive 91 percent of people in Myanmar report that they have given money
to charity in the past year, a commitment that may be linked to practice of
Theravada Buddhism. In the country, it is common for locals to give money, food,
and other support to monks in order to help them live their ascetic lifestyles.
With a population of 39 million, Myanmar has the highest per-person giving ratio
of any country on this list.

3. United States
Despite the noise around the upcoming presidential election in the United
States, political tensions haven’t kept Americans divided from each other. But a
very high proportion of the population helps strangers (76%) with the US only
beaten on this by Liberia (78%) and Iraq (79%) and the high rates of
volunteerism are possibly connected to supporting a political candidate through
actions like phone-banking.

4. Australia
Aussies, coming in behind only Myanmar and Indonesia in amounts of per-person
giving to charity which proves they are clearly fond of opening their wallets. And
while the index only considers donations made in the same country the giver
lives in, the definition of "Australian" is changing as the country has pledged to
take in some 12,000 Syrian refugees.

5. New Zealand
It might not be a coincidence that New Zealand lands immediately after its
neighbor Australia on this list. As the World Giving Index notes, "Comprised
solely of Australia and New Zealand, Oceania is a conflict-free, economically
homogenous continent where barriers to giving will be lower than in many other
countries."

6. Sri Lanka
Sri Lanka has emerged as one of the largest achievers on this year’s list, from the
shadow of a brutal civil war that ended in 2009. The country of 21 million scored
high marks for both community volunteerism and for kindness to strangers.

7. Canada
Being the world's second-largest country, Canada has been in the Global Index
top ten every year. However, this was its first year falling outside of the top 10
for individual charitable giving, but the country's score was reinforced by solid
numbers in volunteering and helping others.

8. Indonesia
The archipelago of Indonesia is up from 22nd place in last year's index to
seventh in this one. The survey was conducted in August, coinciding with the
holy month of Ramadan, where it's customary to donate to charity.

9. United Kingdom
Brexit? This year's survey was conducted before the United Kingdom voted to
leave the European Union, so it's not clear if the big change will affect the
country's status when it comes to charity. Right now, 69 percent of Britishers
said they donated money to charity over the past year and 33 percent did some
volunteering.

10. Ireland
It's not only Irish eyes that are smiling. Ireland got high marks for kindness to
strangers, which undoubtedly contributes to the country's successful tourism
industry. When it comes to giving money, the Irish are the eighth most generous
in the world but the proportion of those willing to help strangers has fallen,
making it the 37th most stranger-friendly country.

11. United Arab Emirates
The oil-rich United Arab Emirates doesn't only use its wealth to build ornate
opera houses and extravagant skyscrapers in Dubai. The country makes its first-
ever appearance in the top ten this year, after coming in 14th in 2015.
