Scarcity is a major barrier to individual philanthropy. Although it can be common in many areas of our lives, scarcity seems to show up most when we think about money.

The why behind your philanthropy is more critical than the what. Without the underlying “why”, philanthropy can turn into a mundane task that contributes little to you or society. With it, however, even the most common philanthropy actions can be a springboard to meaning and connection. Discover the difference this approach makes in this week’s episode of The Basement Philanthropy Podcast.

Today is a day of outsourcing. We outsource everything: our cooking, driving, shopping, and yes our philanthropy. Although outsourcing your giving is more time effective, it robs you of experience.  Experience that makes you happier, healthier, and an overall better human. It’s time to start diversifying your philanthropy with giving that is up close and personal.
