who wants a PEZ?!  Group: Members Posts: 1,993 Joined: 27-December 02 From: south-(not north)-wick, MA Member No.: 32 Region Association: North East States  |
life is tight here but brutal elsewhere. my wife and i have made a commitment to give and have our children on board as well. here is the question... where does one give where the $ do the most good?
my gut is in knots wishing/hoping i can help. my son just emptied his piggy bank and handed his money to me to donate. i said i would match whatever he chose to donate. brought tears to my eyes.... any suggestions on where money should go would be appreciated. many thanks and please dig deep mi amigos.... |

went with doctors without borders...
have followed them for years and they seem to be realtively apolitical..... just gotta do something... and the best part, my son said..' i wish i could have gotten those star wars legos, but those guys need help a lot more than i need toys...' rest well..... |
