Hi all, Sulah began an interesting discussion on
http://telecentrecommunity.ning.com/group/moneynextdoor asking community
members to give reasons for their generosity.
The reasons given were interesting and compelling in a way.
Here are the most highlighted points by different participants in the
discussion:
-
Compassion/ kindness compels most participants to give
-
To Support a cause
-
Response to a call
-
Help to build, develop, improve the well being or livelihood of others
-
Some find satisfaction in giving
-
Promote equality amongst people- mostly charity organizations
-
If there are elements of confidentiality, trust, good will, transparency
and team work
-
Others give in function of needs and priorities
-
If collateral results can be as positive in achieving the initial aims
-
Commitment
-
When asked for help is when others give
-
Leadership skills/ key job task
-
If there is a similar cause/ objective BTW the giving and receiving
parties
-
Timely asking motivates some to give
-
Personal/ religious beliefs
*Why do you give?* Am hoping all of us do :-)
