Sorry, Guys, I wasn't clear.
I don't mean percentage, I mean actual numbers. How much money was given to charity by all the Christians in the world last year?
Does anyone know?
How could someone find this out?
Thanks.

You would have to really research this to get a clear answer. Maybe get a Gov. grant to research it, lol.
Also would you count time that Christians spend in missionary work or soup kitchens, or shelters in your answer? Or only exclusively MONEY? This is a big question to ask.
If I had to guess I would say probably a couple hundred million dollars.

Good query guy, however this type of study might take a life-time. Dont supply in to all this stat stuff in any case it quite is over rated. Take a lineup for illustration in which the lead off batter is the primary batter to come back to bat within the first inning, whilst is the following time this so referred to as lead off batter would be the first batsman in what inning, the mathematics simply does no longer aid the so referred to as line up method. More so feel of the road up on this approach, the Lead Off batsman will have to be a rapid man with well bat manipulate who will get on base more often than not (ricky henderson) the moment batsman will have to even have a few velocity however is extra approximately bat manipulate and will get that rapid lead off man from 1st to third on one swing (robbie alomar), the 3rd man, good this man is like poetry in movement and more often than not the top batting avg kind man (George Brett), four and five get just a little extra fascinating they each posess energy on the plate however one in most cases has extra bat manipulate then the opposite and will get a few RBI's plus hit 30 dwelling runs (Mike Schmidt) and five good he's simply all or not anything dwelling run or strike out artist (reggie jackson), then there may be 6 by way of nine and that's anyones wager and dealt with otherwise through special managers. The fact to this line up regardless that is it has a Major League Flaw in its method. More occasions then no longer the all or not anything Clean up man is main off the moment inning after which the quantity nine batter is main off the thrid inning and so forth etc. I wish this is helping you appreciate the road up method just a little larger.

How and who could ever keep count.
There are three types of tithing in the old testament. 10% a year for the work of God. 10% for yourself and your family to throw a fiesta. I think three years between. 10% every seven years for the poor and the widows. I'm not sure on the years and don't want to look.
I know this is fact. If you expect God to give you abundance you have to happily perform all three.
You owe the first, the second is for you and if you can't give happily to the poor don't expect any special blessings.

I don't know if there is a single figure that covers everyone. Why do you ask?
This isn't an exact figure, but it may answer what you are looking for depending on what it is: http://www.townhall.com/columnists/column.aspx?UrlTitle=who_gives_to_charity&ns=JohnStossel&dt=12/06/2006&page=2

No one could tell you that most if they attend church give less then the 10% requested by the Bible!
those who do not give to people all the time & not let them pay it back but tell them to pass it to the next unfortunate person they see.

2 billion Christians in the world
I'd say nearly all 80% or so.
donations as far as time and food and clothing are taken into consideration, let me find a statistic...
75% in the US

Within the 90% or 95% confidence interval?

As believers, many charitable gifts and works are shared anonymously. There would be no way to track a gift of unknown origin.
