Plan charitable giving
Philanthropy feels great when you’ve budgeted for it in advance. Today, challenge yourself to create budget and include charitable donations as part of your monthly spending.
I’ve been giving regularly towards a few different animal groups for 3-4 years. I wish I could give more, including my physical self, but I can’t bear to have to see the abuse and suffering imposed on innocent animals by careless, reckless humans. I give for now, to keep those who can deal with those daily horrors, so they can provide more care and nurturing to help the precious ones heal inside and out. One day I hope to join those special angels, even if I can’t save them all, every little bit helps and it’s a good feeling in the end.
Today I donated $35 to the Walk to Defeat ALS. Will save money I’ve been spending on credit card interest to give to a health related charitable organization once per month. Animal or human health (August 2008 it was amyotrophic lateral sclerosis)
