Here are some statistics regarding which nation is most generous per capita from.

This chart is supposed to include government and private aid, although I would think determining that would be quite complicated. It probably gives a good rough idea. I'm sure that if you asked anyone which country is the most generous, they would probably say their own. Unless you live in northern europe, you are probably wrong.
| Sweden |  0.5 |
| Denmark | 0.48 |
| Netherlands | 0.45 |
| Norway | 0.4 |
| France | 0.23 |
| Belgium | 0.21 |
| Switzerland | 0.21 |
| Finland | 0.19 |
| United Kingdom | 0.19 |
| Austria | 0.15 |
| Germany | 0.15 |
| Canada | 0.14 |
| Ireland | 0.12 |
| Australia | 0.11 |
| Italy | 0.11 |
| Portugal | 0.1 |
| Japan | 0.09 |
| Greece | 0.07 |
| Spain | 0.07 |
| United States | 0.07 |
| New Zealand | 0.03 |
Another site has a chart comparing government spending on foreign aid. This does not include private aid, so I'm sure the numbers were much easier to arrive at.
