Petition Make charitable giving of at least 5% compulsory for every taxpayer.
More details
For businesses, as well as individuals.
Imagine the difference it'd make to medical research, global poverty etc. if everyone contributed at least 5% of their salary to a chosen charity.
I understand wages for some don't stretch far these days, but I truly believe that we'll reap back all that we give; not just as individuals, but as a country.
The government should give taxpayers some kind of tax incentive for doing this.
Sign if you want to join me and petition for something which could make a real difference to the world.
