I currently give away appx. 10% of my net income (that is, income received after tax withholding etc.). I take a two-tiered approach: occasional giving throughout the quarter, and then “topping off” my donations at the end of the quarter so it equals roughly 10% of my net income.
For the last quarter (10/1 to 12/31 of 2022), my donations were as follows:
•38% to St. Francis House
•36% to GiveDirectly
•18% to the John Ritter Foundation for Aortic Health
•7% to Books for Africa
These donations were in an amount totaling 10.33% of my net income from that period.
