The causes that our drive benefits couldn't be much more worthy. They are not just random charities we picked out of a directory with our eyes shut. We love that all our charities are so darn efficient, wringing as much as possible out of every dollar donated to their programs. Almsgiving leaves a man just where he was before. The time is right.
Generosity lies less in giving much than in giving at the right moment.
The U.S. poverty rate is twice the average rate of other industrialized countries. Because giving is a win-win proposition. The recipient gets much-needed aid. The donor gets a little peace of mind that he or she is doing something. No robber can take it from you.
