How to Donate: The Keys to Giving Effectively

Are you more of a giver or a receiver when it comes to helping others? I definitely love giving more than receiving…in fact I’m a terrible gift receiver. Giving effectively isn’t always easy. Our guest, Grace Nicolette, co-host of the Giving Done Right Podcast and Vice President of Programming and External Relations at the Center for Effective Philanthropy (CEP), is here to help you figure out how to give effectively whether it’s now at the end of the year or whether you want to create a giving plan for next year. Grace answers some of your toughest questions like How much do I give? Where should I give? And How do I know if I’m making a difference — or if I’m actually doing more harm than help? I’m hoping this episode inspires you to think about giving in a different way and to find an organization or cause that you deeply care about. It is true that even a little can make a big difference when it comes to giving. Let’s start talkin’.
