Generosity Quote by Tina Hallis
““Studies show that receiving generosity and kindness increases the likelihood of extending generosity to others. And kindness is likely to play an important role in setting a cascade of generosity in motion. When we help others, we may not only be helping this one particular individual but potentially many others downstream.””
