More Austinites giving time and money - News 8 Austin

More Austinites giving time and money - News 8 Austin: "ohn and Samia Joseph represent that vital transition of volunteer-turned-donor. This transition needs to happen to secure Austin’s philanthropic future.

Austin is an active city. While we've highlighted a few philanthropic pioneers, like the Josephs, you don't have to start your own charity to address a cause. In fact, it's not often encouraged.

If you're new to town, do your research on what programs and groups are out there. Get talking and seek out the needs. It's not often easy for the missions to find you. Investing in your community creates new wealth, enriching 'Austin's 2 cents on giving.'"
