Daffy

How can one incorporate charitable giving into their financial budget?

Stock

With Daffy, you can set up recurring donations, so you don't have to remember to give each month or year. You can start small, with as little as $10 a week or $25 a month, and increase your contributions as your financial situation allows. This way, you can make giving a habit without causing financial strain. Daffy also allows you to give in a way that aligns with your personal values. You can choose to support local causes, unrestricted donations, or any other charitable strategy that resonates with you. As Daffy member Sergei Shevlyagin says, "Once I was in a position to give, I gave $50 here and there, but I had no idea what a good amount to give was. So some goal is better than no goal and 1% seems like a good and easy goal to keep myself accountable." Incorporating charitable giving into your financial budget doesn't have to be complicated or stressful. With Daffy, you can make giving a regular part of your financial planning, helping you to give more consistently and generously. So, if you're looking to make charitable giving a part of your financial budget, consider joining the Daffy community. Start today and make giving a habit. *References: Thaler, R. H., & Benartzi, S.
