Dr. Laurie Santos from the Happiness Lab here.

It's the season of giving, and this year my podcast, The Happiness Lab, is partnering with GiveDirectly, a nonprofit that provides people in extreme poverty with the cash they need as part of the Pods Fight Poverty campaign.

Our goal this year is to raise $1 million, which will bring over 700 families out of extreme poverty.

Your donation will put cash directly in the hands of these families in need, and they'll get to decide how to use it, whether that's school transportation, purchasing livestock, or starting a business.

Plus, if you're a first-time donor, your gift will be matched by giving multiplier, which means more money for those in need.

Visit GiveDirectly.org slash Happiness Lab to learn more and to donate.
