"Maximizing Impact: Safely Donate with Purpose on Giving Tuesday"
As Giving Tuesday approaches, here are five tips to consider when donating to charities with purpose and intention. First, make a list of the issues that matter to you and narrow down your philanthropy to be more strategic. Second, use your household budget to decide how much to give, considering both your financial obligations and the impact you want to make. Third, donate to a mix of charities, supporting both large global organizations and smaller local groups. Fourth, beware of charity scammers and verify the legitimacy of the organizations you donate to. Finally, remember that volunteering is also a valuable way to support causes you care about.
