There is no right or wrong amount to give when it comes to donating money. Any amount of money you can afford to give will be appreciated.
Most charities suggest some level of giving.
Remember that you can choose one of these levels or you can write in your own amount if you prefer. Several organizations offer benefits for donations. These can range from free tote bags and T-shirts to having your name plastered on the side of a library. While these perks are nice, remember that the cost of these premiums might be taken out of donations, leaving less to go to the actual charity. If you feel strongly about all of your money being directly donated, check with the charity for their policy before you donate.
