Whether it is a small or large amount
of money, people feel happier when they
give. This is because making someone else
happy makes the giver happy, too.
This idea of connecting your
happiness to the happiness of others is
described as Ubuntu in an African
language. There is even a story about a
man visiting Africa who asked some kids to
race to a nearby tree. The first child to
touch the tree would get a sweet treat.
