I used to be involved a lot more in community events, I have found as I get older that between work, family and just down time, I have really cut out the volunteering. I do give 10% to charity and in the end of the year I normally have given way over that 10% mark. I believe the way to give charity is first to family that need, then friends, then your local community then to other charity's beyond that. I have never gotten past the local community charity (and sadly have given a lot at times to family and a friend).
