T-INTRO

In this next to the last section, we will be talking about donations of time and money to charitable organizations.

Charitable organizations include religious or non-profit organizations that help those in need or that serve and support the public interests. They range in size from national organizations like the United Way and the American Red Cross down to local community organizations. They serve a variety of purposes such as religious activity, helping people in need, health care and medical research, education, arts, environment, and international aid. Our definition of charity does not include political contributions.

Donations include any gifts of money, assets, or property made directly to the organization, through payroll deduction, or collected by other means on behalf of the charity. This interview is limited to donations made during the calendar year 2000.

Let's talk about volunteering through charitable organizations. By "volunteering" we mean spending time doing unpaid work and not just belonging to an organization.

Volunteers are involved in many activities such as coaching, helping at school, serving on committees, building and repairing, providing health care or emotional support, delivering food, doing office work, organizing activities, fundraising, and other kinds of work done for no pay.
