Your community needs you. And whether you realize it or not, contributing to your community will have a significant positive impact on your financial life. In fact, Pete the Planner’s Ideal Household Budget suggests that 5% of your income can be allocated to charity. Accounting for the needs of others has a way of creating more perspective on your financial life.

You won’t always be able to contribute monetarily to your community, but your willingness to donate your skills, time, and talent can do the trick too. Take some time and evaluate whether you are contributing resources to your community or just draining the resources of your community. True leaders always make time or free-up money to support their community. It’s never too late to start making a difference. Make it a priority to start making a difference today.
