The more you give, the more you get back. We all know it in our hearts, but it is one of those truths that seems counterintuitive. If I give more, will not there be less for me? As I discovered when I joined a group called Friends of Heritage Preservation, there are all sorts of rewards for philanthropic largesse. Founded by my pal Suzanne Booth, an arts powerhouse whose resume would make anyone feel inadequate, the FofHP gives grants to restore or conserve works of art all over the world. in return we enjoy the warm glow of knowing we have done our bit for posterity.
