SEATTLE — Women across nearly every income level give significantly more to charity than men, nearly twice as much in some cases, according to a new study by the Center on Philanthropy at Indiana University.
The study offered several factors the researchers thought contributed to the growing generosity of women: More women are working and their incomes have grown, more have college degrees that yield greater earning power, and the percentage of women who make more money than their working husbands is now about 26 percent.
The study found that women give more in every income bracket except one: Those with incomes of between $23,509 and $43,500.
