Know the 10 Least Charitable Countries in the World

I found out about The 10 Least Charitable Countries in the World through Insider Monkey. There is a report by CAF (Charities Aid Foundation) that sheds light about the charitable countries and the ones that are not so.
I have read earlier about the most charitable countries in the world. So, we might as well know about the least charitable countries.  The giving trends across the world were determined by the “World Giving Index”. This was done in 2012 and included 146 countries in all. Some of the questions that were answered were: Volunteered time to any organization? Donated money to charities? Helped a stranger in need?
The report by CAF indicated that charity related incidents have gone down since 2007, which could be due to economic conditions. Around 100 million people are donating, volunteering and helping lesser. This means the number of people getting help has decreased, which is not good.
The fact is that today more people need help due to the financial crunch. The existing economic conditions have led to more people in need of help at present. Hence, it is necessary to understand the act of giving and why it is so important at this stage. In order to increase the giving trends, the CAF report has made some suggestions. One of the suggestions made is to openly make charitable contributions so that other people can follow suit. If giving becomes a norm in the society, then it may happen that more people are open to the act of giving.
