Online Giving GuidelinesDo you wonder ... "How much should I give?" when thinking about donating on the Internet? If so, we provide a few helpful tips to make the decision easier. The first thing to recognize is that a donation of any size is ...
A Sign of SupportEvery time a donation is made, it sends a signal that someone appreciates the work the organization is doing. Just like drops of water, small change does add up when many people give across the world. Larger donations show how big an impact the site is having on its users lives or how much it's mission resonates with donors.
Value of The InformationBut donations do not have to be just signs of support. They can reflect an honest appraisal of the value of the products, services or information you receive. Especially with information based sites, you can base the size of your donation on how much the ideas are worth to you. One way to do this is to think of what you get as mental food and then decide what the meal was worth to you. Is the information worth the price of a candy bar, a good cup of coffee, a nice meal, a dinner and a movie, a special splurge or a feast fit for a king? You can also compare the value of the information with other idea sources - such as the latest book, workshop or weekend seminar you purchased. Find which one best reflects the value and consider donating the same amount.
How Much You BenefitedOr you may prefer to give based on the benefits you received or the impact a site has on your life. Farmers tend to set aside 10% of the harvest to pay for the seed. So you can place a value on how much you would have willingly paid someone for the benefits you received and give a percentage back.
