It all adds up

I am convinced with mathematical certainty that Daylight Savings Time "spring forward" will always occur on a weekend when that hour is most needed. This year was no exception. The early morning hours of Sunday were filled with kiddos who'd come down with the flu in the middle of the night.

Here's another, happier, mathematical certainty. Let's assume that you routinely give to 32 different charitable organizations in any given calendar year. (Actually, this amazing equation works with any number--32, 5, 15, 61, you name it.) What's the total number of tax letters you need to save for your accountant? Answer: 1. That's right, one. Your personal, family or corporate fund at the Community Foundation allows you to organize your giving in one place.
