I Like Giving
$14.99
The problem many face is that while they want to be generous to others, so much about charitable giving is distant, removed from real people-it becomes a rote process of donating money or transferring funds. I Like Giving will show readers how they can give in personal ways, face to face, and become part of the story of life change.
Brad Formsma, founder of the unique website, ILikeGiving.com, invites visitors to the site to share their stories of giving to others in their local world and how it has changed not only the receivers’ lives but also the givers’ lives. In his book, Formsma further develops the concept of his website, drawing people to a lifestyle of giving by discussing the power of giving person to person, face to face, providing ideas for giving in the reader’s own circles, creating a giving culture in families, and showing how to capture those stories of giving. Both prescriptive and story-based, I Like Giving offers unique connections to the website and the I Like Giving concept.
