Which charity did you donate to? how much? and what was your reasoning?
I'm really looking into this because trying to find favors that everyone will like is just really getting on my nerves now

We're donating to the MS Society, we're giving about $3 pp, the total will be about $500. No reason for that # it's just what we were able to do
eta: we are donating to the MS society because FSIL has MS
question about this, since you are donating in honor of someone who is still alive, how are you wording this for your guests
FH and i are considering make a wish, but my aunt has lupus and was considering doing a donation in her name, but i dont want it to sound as if she has passed
also by any chance did you look to see how much of the contributions actually go to research. I found it for lupus and it wasnt very much and this kinda bothers me..
Total Expenditures Program Services 78% Fundraising and Administration 22%
Program Services
Research 10% Public Information, Education, and Advocacy 25% Professional Education 10% Patient Education and Support 12% Chapter Training and Support 21%

I am going to donate to the American Cancer Society, my mother passed away from Lung Cancer. I'm still not sure how much we are donating but I know they will send us scrolls or bookmarks to put at the place settings. I am also going to do little boxes with hershey kisses in them so the guests have something to take home!

I am donating to St. Judes in memory of my dad b/c that was the only charity he liked to donate to. We'll probably give between $400-500.

FH and I are donating to the Surfrider Foundation because we are HUGE beach and ocean people and supporters. Also, the local Freeport Animal Shelter. We volunteer there and really see how much help they need.
