And then in the grand scheme of things, you let your contributions go because you trust the big picture of the organization.
That’s what’s cool about giving.
In the case of Paddle-to-the-Sea, the wooden canoe eventually travels through all five Great Lakes and the St. Lawrence River and finds its way to the vast Atlantic Ocean. At the end of the story, you’re left with a feeling of wonder and greatness and triumph.
It can happen like this. Friends of mine sponsored a child in Ecuador. They lost touch with him after he graduated from the program, then years later they reconnected. In the meantime, he’d become an attorney and today he’s paying it forward, helping many impoverished people have a voice in legal matters and securing justice.
That’s what I’m talking about. The small monthly donation that my friends gave over years multiplied itself exponentially.
You just never know. Maybe the twenty bucks you give to the American Cancer Society will be the tipping point. It will be the money that breaks open the solution to curing cancer.
Just imagine all the possibilities that can happen when you give.
How have you experienced a benefit from giving money away?
