The chart illustrates the proportion of money donated to charity among five different age groups in Britain in 1990 and 2010.
We can see substantial diversity in the proportion of young and older adults in different years. The most significant difference was that the rates of the younger generation and the middle age raising money in 1990 were more than in 2010. By contrast, the phenomenon of the older generation over 51 years old was the opposite.
In the youngest age group, the proportion of people donating to charity was the lowest in 1990 and 2010, about 7% and 17%, respectively. Notably, most people did charity in the age groups of 36-50 and 50-65, with a maximum of approximately 42% in 1990 and 39% in 2010. The elderly were generally more likely to donate. Charitable people over 51 accounted for more than 60% during these years.
Overall the table suggests that British people over 35 years old were more likely to give money to charity than the youngster.
