Giving to causes we care about (Milt and Judi)
MILT: We try to give to causes that we're passionate about, where we can not only give money, but can give our time and our talent and our relationships. It allows us to give back the generosity that we received in our lives.
Judi: [05:10] Schwab Charitable makes it very easy to pick and choose the charities that we are interested in helping. For instance, if there is a disaster somewhere in the world, we can easily go online into our Schwab Charitable fund. We can make a donation to support relief efforts, wherever it might be in the world.
And then Schwab Charitable does a fantastic job of following through quickly. And then even sending a very nice letter on our behalf to the charity with the check that expresses our desires.
MILT: Judi has always said, "This is just so easy". We know that the organization's 501(c)(3) certified. We know that the gift went. We often get a thank you note from the donee. It just happens so quickly and so easily.
