The Team Reed Foundation, in partnership with Patrick Reed, is fully aware of the importance of giving. Please share this presentation to show that importance to others as well.
2. Remember back to a time when you were
feeling uneasy about a decision, or were in
need of financial aid and needed a little
help. Most likely, you had a support system
there to help you. And if you didn’t, it likely
made the hardship even more difficult to
deal with.
3. For Patrick Reed and the Team Reed
Foundation, giving to those who are in need
of a metaphorical or literal shoulder to cry
on is a duty, not a choice.
There are countless reasons as to why it’s
important to our team on a personal level,
but why is it necessary on a global level?
Here is just a brief explanation of why it’s
necessary and how it’s working.
4. According to CharityNavigator.org, a site
that collects charitable giving data, a total
of $390 billion was given to charitable
organizations in 2016 alone.
That’s a lot of money! With a lot of money
comes a lot of responsibility, and thankfully
this money was put to very good use.

6. HEALTHIER AND HAPPIER
HUMANS
Giving to charitable causes and nonprofits
actually causes you to feel more positive.
Found on the site, “The Life You Can Save,”
the National Institute of Health stated that
those who donate actually receive a jolt to the
pleasure centers of their brain.
7. HEALTHIER AND HAPPIER
HUMANS
Adding more meaning to your life in order to
give others a chance at an equally happy and
meaningful life can have amazing affects on a
personal level and a societal level. Spreading
positivity can promote giving to younger
generations as well as encourage your friends
and family to join in, creating a giant giving
circle.
8. BECAUSE IT WORKS
Through our own donations and time given to
causes in Houston, Texas, we have seen
firsthand the positive impacts on charitable
giving to society. There’s always room for
critiquing and bettering charitable practices
around the world, but there is no denying that
the impact is felt by society, businesses, and
those in need.
