[quote=Anonymous]sending money to them on an annual basis? We had a great guide for a trip last spring break, someone who really went above and beyond the job description and everyone in the family appreciated his efforts. We provided him with a generous tip and he was very appreciative. I've been wondering about whether making an annual gift to him and his young family. Thinking in the ~$500 range. We can afford this. While we do like tax deductions from donations, sometimes one can make the most difference is with a direct payment to someone. $500 is not going to send his kids to the most expensive private schools in his hometown, but it would take a hit out of their school fees. OTOH, I am aware, as I've spent a fair amount of time in his home country, that such a move might encourage other requests. Not always, but might. Thoughts? TIA.[/quote]
