Kate shares 3 things she would want to leave as a legacy for her nieces and nephew.

1. Her creativity

10:06 "It wasn't my goal. I never dreamed of being a children's author.  I dreamed of being a writer. I always say I am a storyteller with photography."

11:50 Kate shares 3 stories of giving that have resulted from The Giving Crusade

1. Smilestones by Molly

16:35 "Their principle used the terminology 'quietly generous' and there is no better way to put that. Truly, there is such beauty in being quietly generous. Where you are not looking for any sort of return, there is no expectation on the gifts that you are giving.  It is purely done, because you care and you won't to make the world a better place."

"The book focuses on a $5 gift as the launching point for conversation, but .... [the gift] doesn't have to be money. You have your gifts in terms of talent and time and love and being a good steward in your community.  All of that is just as important as any money you can give."

"This book empowers the children to make the decision.  Most of the time, parents are leading the giving experience, the volunteer experience...this book really puts that control in the child's hands."
