It is great for parents to consider if they are looking for family activities that teach their children about the world around them. This book contains a lot of information on ways you can make a difference. As a single person, this has given me some great ideas of ways I can help others and feel like I am making more of an impact in the world.
I would recommend it to anyone that wants to make a difference (and that should be everyone). There were several new ways to give that I learned through reading this book. "The Difference a Day Makes" is a terrific book. Karen has done a great job in communicating the importance of giving back every day. It is easy to read, understand and implement in your daily life.
It shows how simple everyday deeds can have a positive impact upon the world. This book gives great suggestions and points would-be philanthropists in the right direction. This is a nice book. Too often people who genuinely want to do something good for society honestly don't know how to go about achieving anything.
In fact, I'm going to buy copies for all my nieces and nephews as they are all charged with doing community service projects and, in my opinion, need to experience that "giving back," among other things, makes you feel good about yourself. What a refreshing read - both thought provoking and resourceful, In today's "information overload" society, it's nice to have a handy resource to help me accomplish many of my personal volunteer goals without it being so much work.
For some, compassionate feelings can overwhelm spare time and energy: readers with such a problem should consider The Difference a Day Makes : 365 Ways to Change Your World in Just 24 Hours a kind of recipe collection for doing good. Turn good intentions into powerful action with a guide which provides vast lists of good things which can be done in a few simple minutes or hours; from providing a resource list for a neighborhood to encouraging workplace and home use of the arts, and assisting an elder who has a pet.
