Toronto, ON – A new Ipsos Reid poll of Canadian youth aged 14 to 18 conducted on behalf of World Vision Canada reveals that Canadian youth spend about 5% of their money on donations to charitable organizations that work outside of Canada. More specifically, when asked how they typically spend $100 of their money, Canadian youth say they spend on average $4.70 on donations to charities involved in foreign aid and development efforts. Interestingly, youth in Ontario claim to spend, on average, the most (nearly 6%) of their budget on these activities.
