Time, Talent, and Treasure
Time, Talent, and Treasure describes ways to contribute to the common good through volunteer effort, shared skills and financial support.
Time, Talent, and Treasure describes forms of contribution to the common good: volunteer effort, shared skills and financial support. Learning to Give uses this framing in its philanthropy education, including examples of artists sharing their work and people providing money to support activities.
For a PM company owner or operating leader, an illustrative plan could identify a volunteer session, a skill-sharing activity or approved financial support. Record what was offered, what was delivered and who confirmed it. Those contribution records describe the support provided; evidence of its effects on the community is a separate question.
