That statistic, which is mentioned a lot, still doesn't disprove what you think it does; actually, I'm sure that even the OECD would be happy to tell you that in real dollar amounts, more foreign aid comes from the US than any other country (even though it's a relatively small portion of our GDP). Not only that, but quoting directly from the source you gave:

Private donations make up a large percentage of aid from the US.
