Dave Toycen, President and CEO of World Vision Canada, believes generosity can save lives—both the benefactor's and the recipient's. The act of giving without an ulterior motive inherently nurtures a need humans have for significance. The author has personally seen how philanthropy has built communities and aided in bringing social justice and peace to our troubled world. During three decades of traveling to the poorest and most desperate countries, Dave has seen and met individuals who have been freed by acts of generosity.
What is generosity? What motivates a person toward benevolence? The Power of Generosity is a practical guide to developing a spirit of generosity, providing thoughtful answers and encouragement for all those looking for ways to be more giving in their lives.

"The reason I have devoted some of my time and energies to World Vision over the past 20 years is that this organization teaches charity by example and actions, not just by speech. I'm a fan of Saint Paul and I believe the best way to judge people is through their charity and generosity. I hope this book will inspire people to act upon their good impulses."
Alex Trebek
Host, JEOPARDY!
"I would never have thought that a book about generosity could yield such insight, such anecdote, such warmth, such principle, such riveting narrative. But it does. It's quite remarkable."
Stephen Lewis
UN Special Envoy for HIV/AIDS in Africa
