There are so many reasons to give. So many positives. So many benefits for everyone involved.
Many of these are on the periphery of the actual act.
When it comes down to it, the main reason why you should give is the difference that it makes in the lives of those who benefit from your generosity.
No matter the motivations for giving, the different ways, or the different reasons, one thing that connects every generous act is the impact the giving has.
I saw it. The courage of a women who just lost her husband through the COVID pandemic, left to raise three children on her own, who took a loan to create a business and a sustainable income. Who found a way forward with her life after going through the depths of tragedy and poverty. The giving from people in Australia made this type of difference possible. Tara inspired me. So did her children.
So, I choose to give to an organisation that works internationally, that is accredited through the Australian Government, that reports back on the impact it is having. You may choose to do it differently, but the reason you give is the same as the reason I do. Something needs to change and I am in a position to help change it.
