I give at school, buying from the first kid who asks me, for an unlimited number of fundraisers throughout the year. I also donate stuff to Goodwill on a regular basis. It’s pretty easy to make a difference in this world.

The loan was paid back and then I of course reinvested it. It is a wonderful program.

One of my favorites is the BOGO – I collect them and distribute them. We do not have bins here to do that. I also carry something on a daily basis – I have a bin at home where I collect things I’d like to give away.  Then of course, while spring cleaning the loads are larger and I go directly to the welfare homes to donate them.

I also fund some of our local “businesses” – like the flower lady, the veg sellers and other roadside shops and also shop with them. I think I’ll do a post about this too. Then I can cleverly post this link to your post for three ways to give easily. Hugs!
You know I love you!

Happy Friday!

The first 2 you mentioned are exactly where most of my charitable donations go and they really are the easiest ways to give.

I am a big supporter of our local food bank because I can’t imagine anything worse than being hungry.

I also donate a lot of clothes and household goods to charity thrift stores. I do a lot of my shopping there also. It’s a vicious cycle – I can’t drop of a bag without picking up a few things while I’m there.

I’m going to look into KIVA – that sounds like a wonderful program.
