I guess I might as well toss out a few...
I support Beckstrand Cancer Foundation and Children's Lifesaving Foundation. Both of them truly help those in desperate need of help. I was once in need of help with cancer and the Beckstrand Cancer Foundation was one of very few organizations in the nation that would do a god darned thing. They also help children with cancer as well as adults. The Children's Lifesavings Foundation has been around for two decades and provide a number of programs for homeless children... Believe it or not they have helped over 4000 families build a new life. -
Jul 18, 2012 6:07 PM GMTI've found that refusing to support causes will eliminate the need for effects. -

*My state is voting on an amendment to define marriage between one man and one woman in November. -
Jul 18, 2012 6:13 PM GMTthe SPCA and the HRC of course. -
Jul 18, 2012 8:52 PM GMTIt's hard to say.
I kick in a few bucks to alumni scholarship funds, and some for the band. But I think they spend more than that calling me up to ask for more
The same goes for public radio.
Sometimes I kick in a few bucks to random starving artists on kickstarter. -
Jul 18, 2012 8:57 PM GMTThe Michigan Humane Society and the American Cancer Society. -
Jul 18, 2012 8:57 PM GMTI support the Point Foundation: http://www.pointfoundation.org/
The Point Foundation gives scholarships to gay and lesbian kids that have encountered significant obstacles, such as being thrown out of their homes for being gay/lesbian. An anonymous donor has funded all administrative costs, so every dollar you give goes to a scholarship. The kids are very impressive, in my opinion. -
Jul 18, 2012 8:58 PM GMTI wish I could do more but I donate to the local animal shelter and the food bank when possible. -

Likewise. I have 17 shirts, 4 pairs of high end leather shoes, almost 40 ties, 9 sweater vests, 3 button vests, 7 sweaters, 6 pairs of slacks, and 5 blazers that I've purchased from Goodwill and all of it was probably only $80 all together. I take advantage of the sales and specials they offer.Trollileo saidI buy all my clothes at Goodwill?

LOL...you're just starting out...... -
Jul 18, 2012 9:33 PM GMTDonate my clothes to Out of the Closet or Goodwill. Throw a few sheckles at the AIDS ride. -
Jul 18, 2012 9:36 PM GMTWhatever you do, just don't end up on '"Hoarders."
-
Jul 18, 2012 9:39 PM GMTMost recently, I've supported my local volunteer fire department. I need to do a lot more. It doesn't help that every time I think of supporting some charity, I find out that they have some anti-gay agenda or some other major political view. I just want to do something to help someone out, not be part of a crusade. -

Jul 18, 2012 9:40 PM GMTI support my balls with a decent pair of underwear. -
Jul 18, 2012 9:41 PM GMT• LASPCA - Louisiana Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. I used to volunteer there but due to my severe dog allergies I had to give it up. Now I just support them through donations.
• ARTDOCS - Provides free healthcare for people who make their living as artists
• NOAIDS - A non-profit organization that provides free testing/counseling to New Orleans
• MAKE-A-WISH FOUNDATION - They make the wishes of terminally ill children
come true
• TOYS FOR TOTS - Provides toys for poor children during the holidays
• IT'S A PITTIE - Non-profit for Pit Bull rescue and rehoming
• CRCL (Coalition to Restore Coastal Louisiana) - Plus, I'm actually about to go help them plant cypress trees in the wetlands. Kind of excited about that.
There are several others but can't think of them all right now. I'm a big believer in supporting the causes you care about. -
Jul 18, 2012 10:03 PM GMTIt's nice to know there are really some selfless givers on the forum! Great Causes man! Great Causes. -
Jul 18, 2012 11:37 PM GMTAt Christmas and around my birthday, I send checks to the San Francisco AIDS Emergency Fund. They help people pay their rent, gas/electric bills, etc., when they can't work because of illness. -
Jul 18, 2012 11:47 PM GMTYes, the 'Sass Everyone Fund'.
