ECCU Give Ten Generosity Challenge
This post is sponsored by ECCU. Opinions are my own.
We are a giving family. We always have been. My kids love giving as much as they can each year. We give toys, food, money, time and more.
We just completed the best challenge for our family. We spent $30. Each child got $10 to do something special for someone who could use it.
My son paid for the food of a man at Waffle House who was homeless. He also spent the extra money on a sandwich for the guy to have later. My 10 year old got ten ones and gave money to several kids at school to buy themselves a treat. My youngest put her $10 in the tip jar at Starbucks because she said that they deserve. I think that each child made a great choice.
GIVE TEN GENEROSITY CHALLENGE
With the #GiveTen Generosity Challenge, ECCU is hoping to create a simple movement of people living out their faith by loving others like Christ loves us. $10 at a time. At the start of the season of giving, now is the time where offering thanks and helping others is top of mind. How would you spend $10 to do the most good for someone else? The choices are as unlimited as the blessings God provides for us.
- Will you buy the drink for the person behind you?
- Donate to a cause you are passionate about?
- Buy flowers to thank an unsung hero?
Embrace the #GiveTen Generosity Challenge by taking $10 and spending it in the most direct and creative way to help others. Share your own stories of giving on the ECCU Facebook page for a chance to be blessed with a $500 check from ECCU to bless their own family or to continue blessing others.

I like to do random acts of kindness often. This is a wonderful campaign!
Ten dollars is not much and can make a huge difference in someone’s life. This is a wonderful reminder.
In the big scope of things $10 is a small amount. That is like a couple cups of coffee. Giving just a little bit can go a long way!
What an awesome campaign! I try to do as many random acts of kindness as possible.
Such a nice lesson to teach your children! This could only help them later in life.
I like the way you make it fun by applying the $10 challenge.
What a great idea. I think most of us could spare $10.
It’s definitely something to consider during this giving season. People really do open their hearts up.
wonderful campaign. I often give back with random acts but never in just $10. Even a smaller gesture means a lot so I think that’s what is important
This sounds like a great generosity challenge. I try to give back as much as I can.
I like to give back and teach my kids the same. Helping others is so important and I try to do so on a regular basis.
This is a great time of year to consider the needs of others and just making the world a better place. The smallest thing can do that!
At least once a month I buy the drink or drinks of the car behind me in the Starbucks drive through. I think it is a great way to share my happiness!
This is a great time of the year to remember how little gestures can make a difference in the lives of others. Thank you for the reminder.
I am so impressed what each child did with their $10. What a great challenge that I want to share with my kids
I love the lesson on generosity. I agree your kids made good choices.
By helping others, we help ourselves. I couldn’t agree more. I buy breakfast for the person behind me all the time! Good karma.
$10 is an affordable amount! This is a wonderful campagin!
This is such a great campaig! We just took my daughter last night to give to the Angel Tree.
