Moving Forward in Uncertain Times
As the political landscape continues to shift, it’s natural to feel overwhelmed and helpless. However, instead of getting bogged down, I’ve made a conscious decision to take action. One crucial step I’m taking is to support organizations that align with my values, especially those that may face funding cuts in the near future.
The Power of Charitable Giving
Giving back doesn’t have to be a grand gesture; every little bit counts. I’ve made a personal commitment to allocate a portion of my budget towards charitable causes. To make room for this, I’ve opted out of unnecessary luxuries, like my Spotify premium subscription. That $10-ish monthly saving is now being directed towards Planned Parenthood, and it’s a small but significant step towards making a positive impact.
Creating a Giving Fund
While I’m still working on paying off debt and building my emergency fund, I’m eager to set aside a dedicated amount for charitable giving. This way, I’ll have a safety net to support friends in need or organizations without having to dip into my regular budget. The concept of a Giving Fund resonates deeply with me, and I’m inspired to make it a priority.
