Philanthropy Friday: #SimpleGiving Buzz

jennifer · December 4, 2015 ·

simplegivingbuttonSince Simple Giving’s pub date on October 27th, I’ve spend a lot of time talking about the book with people all over the country. As a new author, I feel incredibly fortunate to have received so much attention. I mean, I was a guest on Jenny McCarthy’s Dirty, Sexy, Funny show! How did that happen?
I believe it is because the concept of keeping simple ways to give every day top of mind is a something many people are ready to embrace right now.
I’ve been compiling a list of the articles, book reviews and interviews I’ve done and wanted to share it here (or at least the ones I have links to!). This blog and this Philanthropy Friday series, in particular, really inspired me to write more about philanthropy and the concept of simple giving. I hope you will take a moment to click on a link or two to find out more about the book and what simple giving really is all about.
And if you feel so inclined, the book also makes a great gift!
