What's your favorite charity you donate to?

[Pimpadeaux 2,407]

I love United Way. Also donate to CASA, ARC and a couple of others.

What says you?

[BunnysBastatrds 2,715]

 Vets. All

[Sean Mooney 2,062]

Reality's SNAP benefits.

 

Serious answer- I like to just donate money (and time when I can) to local food pantries and shelters. Figure that one will most benefit the community I live in. Outside of that I like the Matthew 25: Ministries which is a humanitarian aid for both here and abroad. Also, stuff for veterans.

Where I'm going with this is coming up with a charity the Geek Club can donate to this Christmas season. 

My entry is Mercy Ships.

I like to throw pennies at the scumbags who beg for change at intersections. And I do mean "throw".

Ive found that donating time > donating money.  I volunteered for a boys running program for several years to help boys become better men and humans.

Now I spend most of my time and money volunteering for a local food pantry that feeds people.  We've done a lot of great work.  Delivering a hot meal to someone in need is good.

Also give a ton of crap to the Vietnam vets each year

My favorite Charity is the one who dances the late shift at the Diamond Caberet.

Donating to charity is stupid as hell.  Help a family member or friend.

[Mike Honcho 5,555]

Charity at Little Darlings, but Charity at Sensation Showgirls is a close second.

Help a family member or friend out. You don't actually like helping people, you're just a pretentious ass hat who wants to say he donates to charity.

Spot on.

I donate time & money to a local charity that helps kids with disabilities, access etc. The name gives too much info away, I'm on the board as well.

Get in line behind mdc, mooney, buckswope, timhack, mggavin, edjr, honcho, rusty, herbivore, and other broken old people sitting in their own filth and lonliness.

That's some great company you keep there wetwipes.

The one we've consistently given to is St. Mary's Food Bank; I think it is only in AZ though.

Most of these large charities are corrupt or at least you have no idea where most of your money is going. Stay local with your money. Remember this one?

 

Tax filings reveal Biden cancer charity spent millions on salaries, zero on research

Quote

A cancer charity started by Joe Biden gave out no money to research, and spent most of its contributions on staff salaries, federal filings show.

The charity took in $4,809,619 in contributions in fiscal years 2017 and 2018, and spent $3,070,301 on payroll in those two years. The group’s president, Gregory Simon, raked in $429,850 in fiscal 2018 (July 1, 2018, to June 30, 2019), according to the charity’s most recent federal tax filings.

Got to listen to a talk from their CTO a few months ago at a conference.  I hadn't heard of them but after hearing him talk I was impressed by their mission.  I'd have to do research to see if they efficiently use donations before donating to them but on the surface seems like a great charity.  My choices for this thread are Food Bank of the Rockies and the Jimmy V foundation.

I neglected to mention the local food pantry, for which my leadership group created an annual community event that continues to this day and draws around 1,000 people. 

Obviously, I donate a lot of time to cats. In the past month, working with the DFW-area rescue, we spared three old-timers from euthanasia. One of them spent most of his life in a cage as a breeder cat. His spirit is broken, but he sure enjoyed hanging out on the couch with us last night and receiving affection he's never known.
