Charities struggling to meet demand

Charities are struggling due to lagging donations. I planned to use my blog mostly for leadership and management news, trends and tips. But this was a headline that was hard to ignore for me.

It is true that economy is struggling and people do not have money to donate. Everyone understands that. But is it more to do with anxiety than their current situation? If so, donations should not be stopped as long as we make some money that is more than sufficient to run our family.

Donation to charity is a promise and a commitment. There are a number of people who are less fortunate due to a verity of reasons. They count on our generosity just for basic necessities like food and a place to stay.

Bad economic condition is another reason for us to start donating if we have not yet started. If we do not have $100, then it may be $10 or even $1 a month. Again, if we do not have any cash, then it could be old cloths or giving our time.

This is my first blog in this New Year. Wishing you all a Very Happy and Prosperous New Year.
