Some Good Charities?

[FoxTail]

I like to give each year around Christmas to some charities but I always give pretty much to the same place  So I was wondering if you'd like to share some places you give to?  Maybe it will help some of us to see some new charities that deserve our support.

So I usually give to my local Salvation Army and the American Red Cross.

Those are great!  I also like to buy bulk jersey gloves and hand them out in person to homeless people in the winter or bring a bag to the Union Gospel Mission or an equivalent. 


Other charities I have given to are...

St. Jude Children's Hospital supports children and their families with illnesses.

Shriner's Hospitals For Children supports children and their families with illnesses.

Wounded Warrior Project to help wounded soldiers and their families.

National Law Enforcement Memorial Fund supports families of fallen police officers.

National Fallen Firefighters Fund supports families of fallen firefighters.

Gary Sinise Foundation Supports families and the children of fallen soldiers[/url].

Those are the main ones from me.

One that should be mentioned as well is one everyone also knows.  The Ronald McDonald Foundation.    They do a ton of good that people don't even realize.

Great list so far everyone.   I hope someone can find something new here.

Boys & Girls Clubs of America and Big Brothers Big Sisters of America are also both good charities. I also really like the Make-a-Wish Foundation.  And how can we forget the YMCA?
