what charity would you donate to?

Humane society. My brother and I buy food, blankets, leashes, etc each year around christmas time instead of buying each other gifts. I try and make it down there once a week to walk dogs too, I missed last week though

Something that would feed starving people. Starving to death can not be fun.

Probably one of the cancer ones, I'd have to research into which one though.
But most likely the American Cancer Society.

Yep, something to do with researching cures for diseases, like the Davis Phinney foundation, or something to do with alzheimers, parkinsons or cancer.

I cant see myself doing this. Out of the major diseases that were around when my grandfather was born till now. How many of them have the even come close to finding a cure for. Most of them even if they did the drug companies would cover it up any way.

How many do you think they will cure in the next 100 years?

the salvation army is great imo. mostly volunteers, helped lots of people around me (and me in my student days on fancy dress party nights lol). great organization

Give a child a smile.

It was a charity that I used to give to back home. It gave clothes and shelter for the orphans.

I watched my favorite person in the world die from lung cancer when I was 8. Left a hell of an impression on me.

+1. animals are the best. if i was wealthy, i'd do alot to help animal cauases

puddles is a good bro

(mark it, the one post i don't bust his balls)

i would either donate to an animal charity, like the humane society or adopt a family at the holiday (I do this now). if you heard some of their stories, it's heart breaking.

Like a mother with 4 kids who lived in a nice house with her husband, and then her husband left her and doesn't pay support, so she's lost her house and taken on 2 jobs to pay the bills... and then came down with some disease and now doesn't have any money to buy her kids anything.

Erskine Veteran's Home for Scotland's ex-armed forces personnel injured in the line of duty anywhere from WW2 to Afghanistan.

Or pretty much any charity aimed at the armed forces; RBL / Help for Heroes / Combat Stress etc
