“I used to think that my contributions to charity were but a tiny drop and would have a little to no effect. However, as I got more involved in charity work, I came to realize that all small donations together can be a wave and an ocean of giving to those in need.  This has since become my goal to increase and participate in the organization’s goals and vision so that together we can increase our capacity for giving and for charity,”
