The table illustrates how much money was given to developing countries by the USA, European countries, and other countries, between 2006 and 2010.
Overall, it can be seen that the USA was the biggest contributor to developing nations in all measured years. In addition, European countries and other countries gave similar amounts of money to developing nations each year.
In 2006, the USA gave over three times as much money to developing nations as European countries did, with a donation of $9.8 million. European and other countries donated $3.1 million and $2.8 million respectively. All countries increased their donations to developing nations over the following two years, reaching a total of $24.4 million.
In 2009 however, the donations from all countries slightly decreased from the 2008 figures, with a total figure of $23.5 million. However, these figures saw an increase again in 2010, with a total contribution of $28.1 million. Of this, the USA donated $20.3 million, while European and other countries gave $4.1 and $3.7 million respectively.
