The Giving Way to Happiness

According to author and philanthropy advisor Jenny Santi, humans are wired to give to those in need, as it activates the same pleasure centers of the brain that are stimulated by food, sex and drugs. Jenny’s new book “The Giving Way to Happiness: Stories and Science Behind the Life-Changing Power of Giving” expounds on this finding as well as how some of the world’s most generous philanthropists are giving away their money.
