Honestly, I dunno. The report doesn't break out individuals from non-profits. Anecdotal reports from charities are that 'giving' is down.
It also depends on what 'income' means to the BEA. There are other reports that impute non-cash benefits as cash income and improved product performance is imputed as increased 'cash cost', and laid off people who no longer get UI checks are no longer counted as unemployed.... yada yada yada....Seasonally adjusted, Lake Superior never freezes.
The DOL/BEA often trys to account for non-cash factors in cash terms and they shouldn't. They oughta just report the damn numbers and tell us specifically where they got them and let us interpret the significance.
The problem with this report is too much is lumped together and seasonally adjusted. Hard to say what it means good or bad. There are a number of revisions to it under consideration to reconcile it with IRS stats. I read somewhere of some discrepancies in the 15-20% range. Could be in the BEA data or the IRS data, or somewhere else.
