Real generosity towards the future lies in giving all to the present. - Albert CamusBill Gates one of the riches men in the world has set up, along with Warren Buffet, a project named "The Giving Pledge".
Its a charitable project that has asked 38 from the Forbes Billionaires list to donate half of their wealth to charities.
This shows that if you already have everything you should give back to the community. Better yet, give back to the world. 400 billionaires has promised to give back to charities all over the world. Sometimes having everything doesn't mean you have fulfilled your duty here on Earth. Maybe its giving to those that will fill that void.
There is something you gain when you give back to the less fortunate. You feel a sense of happiness mixed with wanting to give more. Its really a hard-to-explain type of feeling but I assure you it is worth it. Make a difference. You don't have to give literally half of your wealth but only what you can and you will make a difference and impact other people's lives.
To give and not to count the cost. - St. Ignatius Loyola
