I’m having a hard time understanding what you’re saying with these graphs. Are these for self-identified ETG people, or for everyone in your survey? Donation_w shows something like 60% (no y scale so not sure) of population don’t give at all, is that right? And around 10% give $20K or more? Thanks.
Thanks for your question. Yes, these show the distribution for E2G people only (otherwise these plots could not inform us about the E2G question).

Only 12.8% are literally donating $0. But a larger percentage are donating close to $0 (31% donating <$500, 38.3% donating <$1000). And around 10% give $20K or more?
You can tell from the median of $2000 that 60% of people are not donating $0. The 60th percentile is around $4000.
Thank you David, I understand much better now. It is indeed perplexing to hear that 38% of self-identified earning to give folks are giving $1000 or less, but I think your explanations do seem plausible. I guess there could also be people saving and investing now to do giving later, unless this category was a separate option in your survey.

20.7% were giving $20,000 or more.
