Beth n Rod 1,279 Report post Posted December 2, 2009 We started to make a rather nice list of charities folks can donate to in another thread. I think this topic is deserving of a thread of it's own. Let's all add to it, and see how many we can collectively help. I'll start: Make-A-Wish Foundation : Ways To Help : Donate Give. :) Beth Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 TNRoofCleaner 16 Report post Posted December 2, 2009 St. Judes Childrens Hospital Shriners Hospitals If you have old but good condition stuffed animals you can give them to your local police department and when they get a family violence situation they give them to the little ones to make them feel better. After all they are the real victims. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

0 homemechanixcny 14 Report post Posted December 2, 2009 Both are wonderful organizations. Another would be your local animal shelter or rescue. In these economic times animal shelters are being overwhelmed by people giving up there pets as they can't afford them. However the expenses of running a shelter just keep on increasing and donations are not coming in. Unfortunetely some shelters have had to close. So please remember them too.

0 Camelot 68 Report post Posted December 2, 2009 Honor Flight is an organization that escorts WWII vets to the memorial in DC. These men and women that served in WWII enabled us the freedom to have our own businesses and live the lives we have. Let's help get them to see the memorial in their honor.
