The Charlotte Post - Promoting passion of philanthropy

The Charlotte Post - Promoting passion of philanthropy: Giving back is good for the mind and soul.

Philanthropy, defined as “the effort or inclination to increase the well-being of humankind, as by charitable aid or donations,” is generally associated with the wealthy, but one doesn’t have to be wealthy to give away some of their money, time or resources.

It could mean donating an umbrella to a homeless person or $10 for a pair of children’s shoes or recognizing a person in need and helping them plug into services.
