10 Countries That Receive The Most Foreign Aid Per Capita

5. Tonga 

Average Per Capita Foreign Aid Received Between 2017-2021: $1079 

January 2022 was a sad month for Tonga, as the nation faced a series of catastrophic natural events, including a volcanic eruption and earthquake. These events caused losses amounting to millions of dollars. The country, already impoverished, didn’t have the resources to overcome such an extreme situation and was largely dependent on foreign aid. The US, Australia, and Britain were the primary supporters during the country’s time of need. The US alone pledged foreign aid of $2.5 million to Tonga following the events to help its people deal with the losses.
