Great work coming up with a list of giving ideas! We’ll put these ideas to good use today by planning some ways to spend out of your Giving Envelope.
Today’s Assignment
- Look back on your ideas from yesterday. For each one, reflect on why it’s meaningful to you. And for each one, how much would be a meaningful amount to give?
- Pick one of the ideas, and give to that cause. Remember to pick a cause that’s within your budget, and make sure to leave some money in your Giving Envelope so you’ll have space to give spontaneously later this week too.
- Tell us how you chose to give in the comments below!
Note for couples: If you find a cause that’s meaningful to both of you, combine forces. It can be super powerful both for the cause you’re supporting and for your relationship with each other. Extra Credit: Chi-Ming and Juliette were on the same page when they decided to give their savings away. Listen to their story.
Happy budgeting,
-The Goodbudget Team
