![[AD] Little boo likes to help me (and cuddle) while I write and work, and I hope these moments set a good example for him. He’s only 3, but I try to explain things to him in a way he can understand. Like here, we’re making a charitable donation through @OliveGives. When I explain it to him, donating is simply “giving to friends,” and that’s something we like to show and share with him. I hope he grows up and continues to give to friends and the Earth, because even in the busiest of times, Olive Gives makes it easy to do so. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
@OliveGives is a platform where we can give to friends all over the world through the charitable programs that they partner with. You can easily donate your digital spare change or set a monthly donation amount to donate. My donations are going towards The Ocean Cleanup, which works to remove pollution from the world’s oceans. Other partner charities help us give to friends to help them to teach, to learn, empower them to build a better life for their families, and more! ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Right now, for every person that signs up and donates, Olive will give another $10/€10/£10 to whichever charitable organization you select.
