How to Be an Everyday Philanthropist: 330 Ways to Make a Difference in Your Home, Life and World - At No Cost
"This timely manifesto will serve as a wonderful reminder that everyone can and should try to make a difference. It will inspire confidence that we can help make our world a better place." --President Jimmy Carter
If you'd like to finally be able to help the causes you care about, give something back, and make a difference in the world without worrying about your bank account or day-planner, then this might be the most important book you'll ever read.
Whether you're interested in improving your community, protecting the environment, helping animals in need or making life better for children and families everywhere, you'll find the tools, resources and means to do it in How to Be an Everyday Philanthropist.
How to Be an Everyday Philanthropist shows how just a few small changes to things we are already doing (shopping, cleaning, working, etc.) can make a difference in helping global, national and local charities assist the needy. Each chapter uses a different method of "everyday" philanthropy (such as using your body, your trash, technology, etc.) to solve problems requiring attention.
For anyone who wonders, "what can I do?" This book gives you the resources, encouragement and advice you need to take action. As Julie Salamon, author of Hospital, says, "This book is the perfect guide for those who want to do the right thing, but can't figure out how."
"Four cheers for this great book! Anyone looking for a practical, clear, and enjoyable manual for civic service need look no further. If you can't find a way to get involved using this book, you don't want to get involved."
