It’s actually very difficult to determine who’s the most giving and the most generous in a state like Arkansas. So many people in this great state pitch in and help whenever it’s needed, and it’s absolutely grand to be a native of a state that has so many who give even when it’s hard to provide for themselves at times.

Greatnonprofits.org has compiled a list of Arkansas towns and cities with the most charitable organizations with the highest ratings (this article focuses on towns with at least three charities that have star rankings of four or above from people who have reported using these charities), and it’s these locations across the Natural State providing the most help to those in need.

It’s important to remember that charitable organizations are vital to the Natural State, but these wonderful towns and their programs aren’t the complete definition of what it means to be a giving Arkansan. A great number of individuals across the state have been providing their time, services, and money for years to various causes and continue to do so, and they deserve as much praise as anyone or anywhere else. Thanks for all you do, Arkansas!
