Do Your Giving While You Are Living: Inspirational Lessons on What You Can Do Today to Make a Difference Tomorrow
Review: As author Maurice Sendak says, "There must be more to life than having everything." The dozens of contributors to this book -- including top executives from AARP, Make-A-Wish Foundation, American Red Cross and Dreams for Kids -- prove that.
You'll be moved to tears -- and moved to action -- after reading about these extraordinary people who are, as contributor Casey Golden says, "making a difference, one small act at a time."
The Power of Giving: How Giving Back Enriches us All
Review: "When you read this book, you find yourself pausing to remember holy pieces of yourself and a human relationship with divinity. I found the book delightfully rich which encourages us to seek the deeper meaning that make up a human life. It is a powerful book that radiates compassion and a willingness to take the risk of uncovering one's humanness"

Raising Charitable Children
Review: “I found this book so funny, so frank and so refreshing. Lots of great, practical ideas, not just about what to do in terms of charity and volunteering but about why and how to do it and how to involve your kids in meaningful ways. The author doesn't suggest you have to go about this charity thing HER way; instead, she helps you discover YOUR way. I liked that.”
How Remarkable Women Lead: The Breakthrough Model for Work and Life
Review: Given that I am a vascular surgeon, I was not sure if this book would apply to my life or resonate with me personally, but after reading it on the insistence of a friend, I found it to be an amazing lesson on how to authentically structure one's work life so that it can be productive and rewarding even if you are not "leading" in the traditional sense. Follow the leads in this book and you will be a leader by example if nothing else. I couldn't put the book down, the stories of the women in this book were gripping and inspiring....every woman should read this book.
