Face-off: Donating vs. Volunteering
We are a generation of busy people. Work, family, education, raising children, homemaking – you name it, we’re busy with it. As societies move away from collectivism and grow increasingly individualistic, it is becoming increasingly difficult to make time for things outside our immediate circle of responsibilities that are important and fulfilling, such as volunteering. Some of us are unable to make the time in our schedules, for various reasons, to engage in volunteering so we look for other ways to contribute that aren’t quite so time consuming, like donating or regular giving.
