With the holiday season in full swing, we are all even busier and hopefully merrier too. The time we spend with our family and friends are very special and truly a gift. As well, the holidays are a great time to reflect, to be grateful for what we have and think about others in need. What about your charitable heart to give not just in the holiday season, but throughout the year.
According to Marina Glogovac, President of Canada Helps, “Giving with your heart recognizes the connectedness of all humanity, and understands that we all matter to each other, regardless of how our lives are different. Most of all, charity is about removing the judgment that we often tacitly attach to the needs of others. We should give with the consciousness of connectedness and humbleness.
In Canada, there are over 86,000 charities in Canada. Not just the big ones at the national level, but the majority are small and medium-sized, operating on small budgets and doing very important and impactful work. Look at your where you live and you will often see that they are the backbone of community support
In this busy holiday season, Telpay can save you time by making your donation electronically to your favourite charity.
