New Hampshire Charitable Giving Debate Challenges Rankings
Critics argue charitable giving figures mislead by relying on IRS data while ignoring actual generosity in New Hampshire. In 2004 households claimed about 547 million dollars in the charitable section of itemized federal returns, a 10.5 percent rise from 2003, despite rankings that labeled the state low in giving relative to income. Deborah Schachter of the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation contends reports miss where donated funds go.
