THE NUMBER OF tax-exempt organizations in the United States — charitable, religious, educational, scientific and literary — grew 74% from 1987 to 1998. The number of volunteers for all charitable, social welfare and religious organizations (some not tax-exempt) rose from 93 million in 1995 to 109 million in 1998.
