This Is What You Should Want Dec 02, 2024

Show notes

Our job is not to raise kids at all. Our job is to raise adults.
Every Thanksgiving, we encourage our listeners to join us in making a donation to Feeding America. Every $1 donated helps provide at least 10 meals. We donated the first $30,000, and we’d like your help in reaching our goal of $300,000. If we hit that goal of $300,000, it would provide over 3 MILLION meals for families across the country.

Show Them What This Means Nov 29, 2024

Show notes

If you want generous kids, you have to show them what a generous parent is. There is no better time than the holiday season to do this.
Every Thanksgiving, we encourage our listeners to join us in making a donation to Feeding America. Every $1 donated helps provide at least 10 meals. It only takes a little to make a big difference. We donated the first $30,000, and we’d like your help in reaching our goal of $300,000. If we hit that goal of $300,000, it would provide over 3 MILLION meals for families across the country.

Just head over to dailystoic.com/feed and together we can make a significant dent in a big problem. As Seneca reminds us, intention and attitude are central aspects in giving. Your donations show those in need that someone else cares, that someone else is by their side—just like the loved ones around your dinner table who have been by your side over the years.
