I think its also great to help out close to home. My husband and I are lucky, and we aren't facing any personal economic hardship right now(though last year was totally different). We were lucky and given many things when we were down on our luck. Now that our situation has changed, we are passing those things and more on to other people. I sort of think of it like paying it forward, or good karma. If we need help down the road, I am sure it will turn up. I love this reminder. I think its also great to help out close to home.

It's written very lovingly and does not admonish. Excellent. I'm going to see about giving my $1 (at minimum) as soon as I'm finished with this comment. Thanks for the information.

I've been trying to donate a lot more to charity - but I too don't really have actual money to donate. The major things I'm trying to do is donate blood every 8 weeks and donate some of my freebies and cheapies from store sales to my local food pantry. I'm hoping to get more creative in the future as well...<br /><br />www.helpinganonymously.blogspot.com Great post!

I just did a post called "The Heart of a Giver" on a smiliar topic. I have realized that we can always give, even when we don't have a lot of extra cash. Those of us who are deal-hunters can find lots of great freebies that can be used by others.
