Hawaii’s Charitable Giving finds that 88 per cent of households in the state made gifts to charities in 1998, compared with 69 per cent on the U.S. mainland, and that the average value of their gifts was $883, compared with $696 for non-islanders. The study notes the cash value of gifts from families at differing income levels, the charitable causes that benefited, and the motivations cited by donors.
