The CAF report doesn't only include "charity" or money.
It covers 3 aspect, helping total stranger (can be anything), donating money, volunteering time.
It correlates to trust within the society towards others, as can be shown that population with higher overall trust towards others tend to rank higher, although they might not have 'much' money (ie: Myanmar, Sri Lanka). And those who are living in the population with lower trust towards others (a.k.a insecurity) tends to rank lower. When you're in Yemen or State Of Palestine you will be continuously worry about your security, this lead to suspicion towards others, as you're always on the alert for any potential danger that might damage your well being, (#fear).
I don't have any hypothesis why Russia, Lithuania, Greece or China rank very low.
