The Giving Family: Raising Our Children to Help Others

Many children believe their value comes from what they get for themselves…the coolest toys, the latest fashions, and the most expensive electronic gear. The Giving Family offers parents dozens of simple family activities to teach children of any age how to give their time, their talents, and (yes!) their money to people and causes they care about. The book also recounts inspiring stories of children whose families have made giving to others a family value—from ordinary families with average resources to those whose extensive philanthropy has made its mark on American society.
