Finances can be a strain on any relationship, but giving to charities or your community as a couple can really help make it stronger. Here are some reasons to give back as a couple:

1. Togetherness: Making a decision about what charity to give to and how much can build the communication skills between you and your partner.

2. Turn-on: A man or woman who cares about a cause is super sexy! Earn bonus points with each other in the sexy humanitarian area of your relationship.

3. Share the love: Couples who give a little get more in return. Sharing your love for a cause shows others and each other your dedication.
