One of the greatest gifts you can offer as an entrepreneur this Christmas is the ability to give back. Giving back – whether to an individual, your family, or community – can make a lasting impact. It can also strengthen your team and boost their morale.

It doesn’t need to be extravagant. As long as you’re able to help someone, that’s already making a difference.

If you haven’t started your initiative to give back this Christmas season, here are the three ways to help you get started:

1.  Volunteer for a cause that communicates your company’s beliefs
Tag along your employees and volunteer for a cause that communicates your company’s beliefs. There are many organizations out there looking for someone that can help them with their advocacy. Start finding the right organization that your company can relate to and help with.

2.  Host a charity event
This Christmas is not just about accepting gifts and attending parties, but it’s also about giving back to your community. Aside from volunteering, you can also raise a charity fund or host a charity event for your chosen organization. You can never go wrong with giving back to others as the famous proverbs says, ‘as you sow, so you shall reap’. Whatever good things you have given to other people, it will always return back to you in some good way.

3. Organize an event that empowers others
Empowering others is also a form of giving back. So why not organize an event with the aim to empower other people? You can organize an event for other entrepreneurs, or even your loyal customers, with the goal of empowering them and sharing with them the right tools to manage their business.

Christmas is truly a season for giving. This festive season, may you maximize your ability to give and may you use your resources to benefit people in need.
