Do you love giving to other people? Do you give to poor and the needy? Do you participate in charity work? Can you consider yourself a generous person?

I am, too, and I have the likes of a 'martyr'. One cousin describes me as someone without a single wicked bone in my body. Of course she's wrong because I'm no saint. Sometimes I can be bad too.

I don't havemuch money yet because I don't have a good job but I do get some money and with it I buy a lotforfamily members and stuff. It really brings me joy to do that. :) I have done a little charity work befoe but not a whole lot. I guess U think i'ma pretty generous persn. I'd rather do something for someone else before myself.

I do like to give to charities and good causes. However, I will rarely give the change from my pockets to the homeless that I see waiting at the exit asking for change. I will however donate my clothing and shoes to homeless shelters (YWCA for women and children), and various domestic violence shelters. I haven't given to the church in quite sometime, but I will be getting back into that habit. I've also given things to the young single mothers at the church anonymously.

Yes, I prefer to give than receive. I work for charities, although I can't afford to give a lot to the poor and needy, unless they're friends, in which case I would give them all I could whenever they needed help. I raise money for a local children's hospice and also for my local hospital which is threatened with closure just now. So, I would consider myself quite a generous person, yes.

I think that I'm usually a generous person. I volunteer, I donate sometimes when I can, and in general I just give to people even if they couldn't technically be considered "needy".

i am a very generous person and have been told that I'm kind and generous almost to a fault...I could never see myself NOT being a giving person though, I knwo all too well what its like to not have a place to sleep, food to eat, someone to confide in and trust, a shoulder to cry on etc etc so if I were to NOT be the way I am I definately wouldnt care for me much ya know....

I think that I do consider myself a generous person because I would help my friends who are in need the best way I can without asking for anything in return. I believe in good karma.

I'm always pleased when the opportunity arises for me to help someone out somehow and having the resources to provide that help is available to me.Generosity is karmic and never ever a waste of time or effort!

My entire family thinks I am too giving. Material things and certain amounts of money can be replaced in time. No big deal is my way of thinking. To give is the one thing I love about myself. I hope i never change this! I have a small amount of money from Mylot and they can do whatever they want with it. I am not on here for money.

Basically mine is a helping nature, I will give who ever what ever they ask me. I am very much generous person, for example. If i have 100 bucks in my wallet which i kept for my lunch. If some one asks me for a genuine reason, i dont even think about my lunch or my necessary. simply i will give that 100 bucks to him who asked me. that is my nature. Now you can only judge me how much generous person i am..
