Charity Assessment - Charity is LOVE
Charity Assessment - Charity is LOVE
Effective Charity Assessment - Effective Love
Another word for charity is LOVE, and Veterans. Our local charities are normally the ones we trust the most because we know what they do in our community as a mission, and we know what they do with the money. We know how our communities are helped by them. The local church may reach far beyond their walls to missionaries and humanitarian efforts all over the world. Often the local church will hold fund raisers for specific causes, so you can pick and choose according to what strikes your hear...


Donating to Charity When Broke
Donating to Charity When Broke
In today's economy more charities need our help. More homeless pets end up in shelters. More people are living on the streets. More people are going without food or medical care. School budgets are being slashed so classroom supplies are shrinking as teacher to child ratios keep rising. Yet if you're like most Americans, donating even a small amount each month may not be possible. But there is a way to help. You can give back to your community and help your favorite charitable organizations t...


Children Charities: Salaries of the Executives
Children Charities: Salaries of the Executives
Did you know that some Children Charity CEOs earn nearly $0.5 million per year?
You have often seen the advertisements on television, with photos of childen in dire poverty, requesting you to sponsor a child. The truth is that there are many children around the world that need urgent help and there are many excellent organizations that provide much needed assistance. But do you realize that the executives of these organizations earn, in many cases 5 or 10 times more than what you earn? Frankly, I would not mind if they would only tell you about it. But it seems to be a ...

My Birthday Wish
My Birthday Wish
I'm Donating My Birthday to Charity!
Every year, my friends and family try to decide what to give me for my birthday and while I always appreciate the gifts and the fact that they are thinking of me, this year I want to do something special. Volunteering and donating to charity is my passion and the ferrets need our help more than I need gifts. 45 is a milestone birthday and it would mean so much to me to inspire people to donate to charity for my 45th birthday. Update: 45 came and went, as did 46, but I still ask for donations...


Soldiers Angels
Soldiers Angels
What you can do to be a Soldiers' Angel
Many families in the United States have loved ones serving our country in the different branches of the military. "May No Soldier Go Unloved" is the motto of Soldiers Angels. This non-profit group of 200,000 plus volunteers offers many ways to give to a soldier and his family. I was asked to write a "Charity" article for a group that I belong to. I chose Soldiers Angels because there are so many different ways that a person can make a difference. Obviously contributing money is one way. Foll...

Helping the invisible children
After a shock reminder that there are plenty of invisible children in the world, I wanted to do something to help them. But this isn't an easy task to achieve: How can I really help a child I don't know who lives in poverty on the other side of the world? This is the question. I want to make an actual difference, not just donate to a charity and hope for the best (although that's a great start). So, what I plan to do here is to help raise awareness of the plight of the invisible children, go...

Christmas Gifts That Keep On Giving: Charity gift ideas
The Alternative Christmas Gift Route
Like many people I have become disillusioned with the commercialism of Christmas, so for the past several years I have gone done the alternative Christmas gift route. Friends and family have agreed to give only small presents, such as sweets. Instead we buy each other a gift from one of the many charity based alternatives. My personal favourites are World Vision and WaterAid. The idea is you pick a gift that is given to someone, a family or a community somewhere in the world. With World Visi...


A traveling lens for the BuckHawk Center
A traveling lens for the BuckHawk Center
Thank you for stopping by our traveling lens
The idea is to pass this lens onto as many people as possible. As it's being passed from one lensmaster to the next, each one will create a lens and donate the proceeds to the The BuckHawk Center. The proceeds from this traveling lens are also being donated to the BuckHawk Center. If you are the new caretaker of this traveling lens, your instructions are down at the bottom of the page.


Ten Charities That Really Help Children
Ten Charities That Really Help Children
Everyone loves the idea of helping children, but which charities really reach them?
Charities that help children are at the top of my list when it comes to donations. There's nothing more compelling than a sick, injured, or under-educated child in need. I also love animal charities and charities for homeless people. Maybe a charity helping homeless children to interact with lovable pets would be the ultimate for me, but I haven't found that one yet. Here are some great charities I've found that benefit children. I hope you'll find a charity that's deserving of your philanth...
