Is it ok to go without title

Ok I'm going to be honest here. I don't know how this will come across. I am going to continue with the post though.

 Is the issue of money a taboo? Why do people feel wrong about talking about it? I'm not talking about specifics, like how much. Rather more like, do you tithe, make donations, what kind of company do you support?

 I believe that being generous is a better way to live. I believe that if you have the resources to help someone out you should do it.

 Here are some ways I give back: I support and give micro loans through Kiva. It is a great organization that helps people around the world raise money for needs some personal most business and instead of it just giving them money they pay it back like a loan. There are no penalties for failing to pay other than not getting loans in the future. Loans start at $25 and it is a great way to give.
Toms shoes is another. You may have heard or seen them on tv or other ads around. They give a pair of shoes to a child in need for every pair you buy. Looking at them you may say they aren't worth what you pay, but the cause is well worth it. If the only shoes I ever buy again are TOMS that would be perfectly acceptable.
These are just a couple ways I give on top of tithes.

 If you are comfortable, share how you help.
