OBJECTIVE 19<br />
Identify types <strong>of</strong> charitable giving.<br />
Monetary donations<br />
— Many people choose<br />
to donate money to the<br />
charities <strong>of</strong> their choice.<br />
Volunteer service —<br />
Your time and expertise<br />
can be extremely<br />
valuable to a charitable<br />
organization. This kind<br />
<strong>of</strong> donation might include<br />
making phone calls, designing posters and fl yers, etc. According<br />
to the National Center for Charitable Statistics, approximately<br />
28.8 percent <strong>of</strong> Americans over the age <strong>of</strong> 16 volunteered some<br />
<strong>of</strong> their time in 2005.<br />
Gifts-in-kind — Instead <strong>of</strong> giving money to buy what an<br />
organization needs, you may choose to give necessary items<br />
instead. Non-cash gifts can be large and expensive (such as<br />
equipment) or inexpensive (such as items <strong>of</strong> clothing). The items<br />
can be new or used, as long as they are still in good useable<br />
condition.<br />
