Giving for The Thousandaire: Give Your Time, Talent, & Treasure
Philanthropy isn’t just for billionaires and millionaires. Take Millennials, the largest generation and the largest segment of today’s workforce – they value social responsibility and express it clearly in the decisions they make with their money. It informs the brands they buy, the investments they make and the causes they support with small but regular contributions.
Give with Time, Talent or Treasure
Whether you give for the short or long term, remember the three Ts: time, talent and treasure. All individuals are capable of uniquely sharing with others and may do so in a variety of ways: by volunteering time to others (e.g., helping at a homeless shelter or library); by using talents to help others (e.g., a doctor volunteering at a local medical clinic); and by sharing treasures (e.g., money, assets, loans) with others.
Today, we’re challenging you to think about how you can give your time, talent and treasure.
