On a trip home to Australia a couple of years ago, I come across this little gem. Don't pick this book up, unless you're ready to re-evaluate who, what, where, why and how you give!
Peter Singer challenges you to:
- reconsider how much is 'enough';
- target your giving to make each dollar you donate go as far as possible;
- give to charities that have proven results (and points you to organisations like GiveWell that evaluate the effectiveness of charities);
- pledge 5% of your annual income to charity; and
- be more open about giving to encourage others to get giving too.
