In 2025, the United States government donated around 1.2 billion U.S. dollars in humanitarian aid worldwide. The European Commission and Germany followed with over 1.25 U.S. dollars. However, this only shows one part of the picture, as the largest economies are likely to be the largest donors. Another way of looking at the largest donors are by how much each country gave as a share of their gross domestic product.
