Giving

Audiobook (Includes supplementary content)
Here, from Bill Clinton, is a call to action. GIVING is an inspiring look at how each of us can change the world. First, it reveals the extraordinary and innovative efforts made by companies and organizations–and by individuals–to solve problems and save lives both “down the street and around the world.” Then it urges us to seek out what each of us, “regardless of income, available time, age and skills,” can do to help.
Bill Clinton shares his own experiences and those of other givers, representing a global flood tide of non-governmental, nonprofit activity. These remarkable stories demonstrate that gifts of time, skills, things, and ideas are as important and effective as contributions of money.
Clinton writes about men and women who traded in their corporate careers, and the fulfillment they now experience through giving. He writes about progressive companies going green, about promoting fair wages and decent working conditions around the world. He outlines what we as individuals can do, the steps we can take, how much we should consider giving, and why our giving is so important.
Bill Clinton’s own actions in his post-presidential years have had an enormous impact on the lives of millions. Through his foundation and his work in the aftermath of the Asian tsunami and Hurricane Katrina he has become an international spokesperson and model for the power of giving.
“We all have the capacity to do great things,” President Clinton says. “My hope is that the people and stories in this audiobook will lift spirits, touch hearts, and demonstrate that citizen activism and service can be a powerful agent of change in the world.”
