Your Legacy. episode with Gary and Lauren Harris about giving and family values. Here is what to expect on this week’s show: ● Gary shares his experience growing up in a big family of seven siblings, where they always had food on the table and parents who loved them. Their parents taught them the importance of money and taking care of others through tithing. This upbringing inspired Gary and Lauren to foster a sense of generosity in their own family. They involve their children in activities like packing food bags for those in need, to teach them about privilege. ● Gary emphasizes involving the whole family in charitable activities, setting a positive example for children and bringing the family closer. He even wrote a letter to his children outlining their family's expectations and responsibilities when it comes to giving. Gary's parents instilled in him the value of giving, even when they had very little. They prioritized gifting and tithing, with Gary's father believing that God always replenishes what is given. This mindset led Gary and his family to make giving a family decision, where everyone contributes and decides on the recipients. The tradition of family giving has been passed down to Gary's children, and he emphasizes the importance of not falling behind or making excuses, as his parents never played catch up. ● Family philanthropy is a cherished tradition in the Harris family. Gary emphasizes the importance of anonymous giving and giving back to the community without seeking recognition. During Thanksgiving, the family reflects on their blessings and expresses gratitude through gifting.
