This blog post was originally published in 2014, but has been updated to reflect the most updated charitable giving data and trends. That’s shocking (and pretty scary).

For example, in April 2007 I wrote 52 posts, but in April 2008 I wrote 61. In early 2008 it was slightly lower for several reasons.
