Day 23: Tell someone unexpected about your favorite gift/grant. #30DayDonorChallenge #GiveSmart

Today’s tweet and post comes to us from Jason Franklin, Executive Director at Bolder Giving.

You can make an impact far beyond your financial contributions by sharing your giving stories with others. Today, tell a coworker, a friend, or even someone you meet at a cocktail party about your favorite gift/grant that you've made in the last year.

Need ideas on how to start the conversation? Check out the Bolder Giving Toolkit.

Give Smart #30DayDonorChallenge

What is the #30DayDonorChallenge? Inspired by the example of 30 Days of GOOD, and mindful that many people turn their attention to philanthropy during the holiday giving season, we at Give Smart thought we’d try our own campaign. Each weekday, we’ll tweet a challenge on how you can make your philanthropy just a little more effective. Why are we doing this? Donors often talk about the big impact their grantees are having and the big impact that they’d like to have with them. But sometimes, the "little things" we say or do can create profound changes.

These suggestions are intended to be fun but are also drawn from our decade-plus experience working with philanthropists and the nonprofits who often (well, sometimes) love them.

Our goal? That in this holiday giving season you will find simple, practical ways to keep great philanthropy top of mind. You’ll find the challenge here each day, or sign up via RSS feed or email below. You'll also find these tweets and more on Twitter at @BridgespanGroup under #30DayDonorChallenge.
