Are you a pig? Let’s hope so. According to the Chinese zodiac, people born in a pig year (1935, 1947, 1959, 1971, 1983, 1995, 2007) are diligent, compassionate, and generous. (Perfect for a fundraiser with silent and live auction). They have great concentration: once they set a goal, they will devote all their energy to achieving it. Though pigs rarely seek help from others, they will not refuse to give others a hand.
