I have been pondering over ways I can give back to the community since I could not do so during the festive season. We all can do more than spread holiday cheer by offering cleaning services, clothes, food, money and other necessities to put a smile on families that did not enjoy the holidays as we did.

When gifting anyone, I suggest shopping more from a brand that packages its products with sustainable, recyclable materials, like QNET. We do not need to buy or make extraordinary donations. Sometimes it's in the little things, like not littering in public places when we hang out with friends or family and recycling waste materials to help reduce the filth in our towns; fortunately, in Lagos, there is the advent of recycling bins at strategic points.

I have decided to give some cash out to disabled people on the streets at least once a week.
What are your thoughts on giving?
