Each Friday since October of 2011, this space is dedicated to stories that illustrate simple ways to incorporate giving into everyday life. My Philanthropy Fridays series has led me on my own philanthropic journey that has included a giving pledge, a trip to Nicaragua, the launch of Simple Giving Lab and much, much more. It has been an amazing experience that continues every single day.
With that said, I have been working on expanding my writing on giving back through a book I am working on. I am also interested in offering more opportunities for others to learn how to better incorporate giving into their lives. I have met so many people through this journey and have found so many resources, I can’t imagine not sharing them in a bigger way.
Today I have two simple requests for you. Two ways in which you can give back very, very simply.
- Wear jeans tomorrow for Rare Disease Day. You can read more about Rare Disease Day in Whitney Reeve’s guest post on rare genes.
- Take my 5-question survey found below. I am looking for some feedback on the ideas I have in my head.
See? Super simple.
Thank you so very much!
Each Friday, the another jennifer blog shares stories of those who incorporate philanthropy into their everyday lives – personally and professionally – in a creative and unique way. If you have a story you’d like to share, please contact Jennifer. Read past stories here.
This is such a great idea and totally took your survey. Have a great weekend, Jennifer 😉

I will be sure to wear jeans today, and will put Eve in a pair as well.

Done and done! Looks like I was late to this, but I really did wear jeans on Saturday. I promise! (And every other day)

I just took the survey. I personally would not be interested in a site – but that’s because my line of work affords me very little “screen time” during the day. I think different people will have different needs with this. Excited to see where you are going with this Jen!
I LOVE the idea of an on line site- not sure how investing I would be personally- but I keep thinking of philanthropic businesses and groups that would be very interested in such a thing!
I wish I saw this Friday- I would have WORN JEANS!!!
Did the survey though!!
