Giving can be one of the most joyful parts of life, but knowing how to donate money wisely is another story. How much should you give? Where should your dollars go? And how do you ensure your donation is actually making a difference — and not unintentionally causing harm?

In this vault episode, we’re joined by Grace Nicolette, co-host of the Giving Done Right podcast and Vice President of Programming and External Relations at the Center for Effective Philanthropy (CEP). Grace shares her expert insights on how to maximize your giving impact, whether you’re donating during the holiday season or planning for long-term philanthropy.

Grace also offers tips on creating a giving plan that aligns with your values and how to avoid common pitfalls when donating. Whether you’re a seasoned philanthropist or just starting your giving journey, this episode will inspire and empower you to give with intention and confidence.
