Immigration and citizenship status
Osili and Du (2005) found that immigrants in the United States are less likely to give
to charitable organizations and also give less, but that these differences are due to differences
in racial background, lower levels of income, and education. Wong, Lien and Conway (2005)
find that immigrants (especially foreign-born non US citizens) are less likely to donate money
to political parties than US born citizens. Frey and Meier (2004a; 2005) find that immigrant
students are less likely to donate to social funds of their university than native students.
Individuals born in a non-English speaking country give less often and lower amounts in
Australia (Lyons & Nivison-Smith 2006). Mean amounts donated by foreign born and
Canadian born citizens do not seem to differ (Mata & McRae 2000) though contributions
increase with the number of years residing in the country. Osili and Du (2005) find that the
gap between immigrants and native citizens closes as time spent in the US increases. They
also find that immigrants spend more on informal donations to family members often in
their country of origin (remittances) than native Americans. While informal donations
among native Americans also exceed formal donations (Schervish & Havens 2002), this gap
appears to be wider among immigrants. Brown and Ferris (2007) find that US citizens give
more to religion than immigrants, controlling for memberships and trust.
