re: Favorite charity to donate to?

St. Jude and Ronald McDonald House are my charities of choice. I know 3 families personally whose kids were treated at St. Jude's. They do amazing work there to fight cancer, but what they do therapeutically (for the mind/soul) for the kids/parents/families is equally as important. Ronald McDonald House is lesser known, but associated with St. Jude's and provides free housing during treatment for the kids and their families.
No way my cousin would have been able to treat his little boy if not for these 2 organizations.

i worked with the foundation years ago and only have good things to say about it, personally. i try to do the br run every year. i understand that they’ve got big sponsors, but they advocate serious research funding and offer support for the diagnosed and support for the family. they help create a community of people experiencing the same struggles.

St. Jude for me. One of the best causes around.

start a business with the money, make it hugely successful, get filthy rich. your rise to riches will support more people through employment than the charity will.

St. Jude and Wounded Warrior are my top 2

St, Jew’s.

Local charity is typically better than national ones, IMO
Posted on 8/8/18 at 6:16 am to Murtown
St. Jude would be great. Local food banks would be good as well.

I don’t give to charity. They always ask for money then a month later they’re in the same place begging with the same story
