Charities?

Do you have a favorite? Do you donate?

I donate to Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation and The Crohns and Colitis Foundation.

This year especially I've donated to the Red Cross and the United Way.

ASPCA - I try to donate regularly (and after Hurricane Katrina). I LOVE animals and hate to think of any animals being mistreated or abused.

Re: Charities?

I'm donating to John Hopkins cancer research, my dad past away late August of intestinal Cancer so instead of party favors we are going to make a donation. I was actually going to do livestrong also, but I want to call them and see if they will make the yellow braclets and have my dads name put on it. This way the guest can have them to wear in memory of him
