How do I decide how much to donate?
Start with 1% of your income, then work your way up. If you make $100,000 a year, that's $1,000 per year going to a public charity, or $20 per week. That's very doable. If you want to match the donation of the average American in your income bracket, you can slowly move it up to 3% of your income.
What is the most common donation amount?
As for how much Americans give, the average charitable donation amount reported by respondents in 2021 is $574. Back in 2019, most respondents (73%) donated less than $500 to charity, so those who are giving this year are generally providing more.

Charity Events
Hosting Charity Events is a great way to increase donations in person. These events put people in the mindset of being in a giving mood when they arrive, and so when asking for donations when they are already in the set mood, they will be a higher chance for them to contribute a larger donation.
