Want to feel better and live longer?  Research from the Center for Medical Humanities shows that there is a strong link between philanthropy and well-being.  It seems the more we give, the better we feel – not just mentally, but physically as well!  It’s time to start getting into some good habits and make philanthropy a regular part of our lives – for the benefit of ourselves and others!  Perhaps the most famous quote from Gandhi is: “Be the change you want to see in the world.”  Be the Change, Inc is a Massachusetts based non-profit organization dedicated to uniting citizens, social entrepreneurs, the service world and leaders from every sector of society.  Their first campaign is Service Nation, a campaign to inspire a new era of voluntary citizen service in the United States.  The idea is to increase service opportunities and elevate service as a core ideal and problem-solving strategy.  They’ll start with working to inspire a powerful culture of volunteerism through the promotion of national days of service.  And the hope is that a commonly asked question will soon be: “Where do you serve?”  If you’re interested in philanthropy and being of service in your community, we have posted some involvement opportunities on CoffeyTalk.
