"To give and then not feel that one has given is the very best of all ways of giving."
Max Beerhom
Each year near the end of the year my husband and I give small donations to certain non-profits, usually about 5. It's always so hard to decide which to give to, but then again, it's always such a pleasure to go through the deicision process, as we get to see and learn more about many great organizations.
There are so many out there that are doing good work, by helping the homeless and other underprivileged people, providing medical care to uninsured, protecting the planet, finding cures for diseases, teaching people about art, music, and history, and so very much more.
I can see how being head of a foundation that gives away money to non-profit groups could be a fun and rewarding job -- wish I got to learn about these and give every day!
