Giving frugally: Charitable giving in lean times | NevadaAppeal.com: "EW YORK — The holiday season is looking lean this year, and your wallet may be thinner than your generosity.
Even if you can’t afford to write a check, remember there are plenty of ways to help out a good cause. Donating property such as art or volunteering professional services are just a few options to consider. In fact, more people are realizing their job skills may be of great use to nonprofit groups.
“You’re seeing this culture where volunteerism is spreading,” said Mark Schickman, chair of the Standing Committee on Pro Bono and Public Service for the American Bar Association."
