To contradict my last post, this article had to do with an improvement in nonprofit giving. This article, written by Donna Gordon Blankinship, talks about how although charitable donations are still low, there has been an increase. According to Blankinship, larger nonprofits can expect to see an increase in giving this holiday season. As one might expect, the giving will still be lower than a company would like, but it should be up from a year ago. Blankinship is sure to mention however, that the increase is not consistent with the rapid increase in need of charitable services. '
In my opinion Blankinship's article should be something that people should be hearing about because when someone hears about a positive in the economy it will help inspire confidence. Just like when we all heard about how terrible the economy was just a few short years ago, the same thing could be done to help it recover. We don't see this however because for whatever reason the media likes to have the economy to report and complain about. If they were to report how the economy was turning around then they would lose one of their big talking points.
