Giving in your community! Saving money in your FAT CAT account is very important and extremely rewarding as you watch your savings grow. Another rewarding way to use a portion of your money is by making a donation to a charity. The term donating means “to give.” For some people, having clothes to wear or food to eat doesn’t come as easy as it does for others and they may need help. There are organizations and groups in your hometown that help those who are less fortunate, and by donating money to these organizations, you can make a positive difference in people’s lives. Donating money is not the only way you can help. You and your family can donate clothes, food or even volunteer your time to help a local food pantry, soup kitchen or clothing closet. It doesn’t matter how big or small the gesture; what matters is knowing you went above and beyond to help others in need, and that is very rewarding! Start noticing ways you can give back in your community. Developing the habit of helping people now can lead to a very fulfilling life in the future!
