I have a confession to make.

In the interview, Cami mentions that she is writing a book about the 29 Day Giving Challenge. So, go through your book collection and take books to the library or a used book store, or pass them on to someone on the street, or whatever. How has it affected the project, if at all? The gifts can be material things.
