Thanks. I know I saw it broken down and figured out in such a way as to show Church estimated income based on their mandatory reportings in other countries, tithing contributions, etc. I thought I had saved it, but I guess not! I'll keep searching.
I found one link to have some useful info.:
http://exmormon.org/d6/drupal/Mormon-Church-and-Humanitarian-AidHumanitarian assistance rendered (1985-2009)
Cash Donations $327.6 million
Value of Material Assistance $884.6 million
The value of material assistance is a wild guess from materials donated by members and not directly out of the church's pocket. We will assume that it actually came from the church directly for simplicity.
Let's look at the numbers.
Total number of years: 25 years
Total amount of aid: $1,212.2 million (cash 327.6 + materials 884.6)
Amount of aid per year: ($1,212.2 / 25 yr) = $48.5 million per year
Let's assume an average of 12 million members of the church over that 25 year time span.
($80.8 / 12) = $6.73 per member given in charitable aid per year!!!
Just so that this is clear - The Mormon church only gives out $6.73 in charitable aid per member per year.
