Charity

[Dream]

I've got some money saved up that I plan on giving to charity. Do you guys have any recomendations of some good charity organizations I can donate to?

Right now I'm thinking of donating money in the field of fighting world hunger, but I'm open to suggestions for other good places to send money to.

Thanks.

I'd go for Catholic Charities, but that's just me....

Do you know any names I could research?

It's admirable that you want to give the money to charity, but are you sure that you will not need it yourself?

I ask this as i believe that you are studying and most students i know need more money to get by!

There are many charitable orgsanisations...you could help to keep your local parish going by offering a donation, support those who work in the field of Child protection, famine,etc...Catholic charities get my vote.

God Bless.

School is very expensive, but I'm blessed enough to have parents who can help me a lot with the expenses.

I know that there are some local charities, but I'd really like to donate to help fight starvation in some poor areas of the world. I'm sure there are a lot of good charities out there, I just don't know the names of any of them.

Yea, I read a post about this earlier. Can you tell me the name of the charity or give me a link so I look into it?

Catholic Relief Fund is a good international charity that does work in third world countries

Campaign for Human Development is another one. In fact, I think my parish is having a special collection for that next weekend.

Send some money to EWTN.

They need it.

Journey's Home on EWTN is awsome.

Dream Theater,

EWTN does so much good.

If you're not going to give it money based on whether you watch it, that's like saying your not going to give money to the breast cancer foundation because men get breast cancer more rarely.

It's your money, but this is my opinion.

And yes, Journey Home is good.

I'm not doubting that it does much good. I would just rather donate my money to help feed starving people across the world than donate it to help a TV station I've never seen before. I feel that's more important.

Yes, there are so many great organizations that need my money, but I obviously don't have enough money to donate to all of them. Working at minimum wage for 2 1/2 years doesn't yeild much cash.

You're right, Dream.

Just a suggestion.

God Bless you.
