Charitable Causes Needed
by C.R. Mooney on Nov.03, 2011, under Giving, My Thoughts
Hey all, you may or may not be aware, but this blog makes money. It’s not anything to write home about, maybe a dollar or two a day, but it’s enough to make a difference. I give the money my blogs make to a different charitable cause each month, and well, I need ideas.
I need a years worth of organizations to give this money too. It’s not much, but every little bit helps, right? Just think, by recommending a charity, you are giving without opening your checkbook!
So, leave an idea in the comments with a link to their website, and maybe a brief explanation of what they do (drill water wells in Africa, build orphanages, feed the hungry, etc) and I will take them into consideration.
You can see where I have already given by visiting my Giving page.

PRC-Pregnancy Resource Centers of the Greater Portland Metro area are always in need of funds. http://bit.ly/tEpddr
They would be an exceptionally worthy organization to give to. Every year I participate in fundraising for them, and we’ve actually taken friends of the family to use their services.
They provide free ultra-sounds, parenting classes, maternity clothes, post abortion counseling, and maaaany other services, all for free. As well as having Registered Nurses doing all the ultrasounds.

TI saw your post on ch’s blog and thought I’d at least make a suggestion on who to donate to
I used to live in Buffalo and became friends with Kate Vacanti. She and her husband started a non profit to provide clean water in Africa. They are amazing people and it is an amazing organization. Their facebook page is here: https://m.facebook.com/home.php?__user=518850354#!/profile.php?id=302264456918&__user=518850354
I also met a girl named Jaclyn Corrigan. She and her
husband recently started a non profit called Kawelle. They provide school supplies to distressed areas in Liberia and Kenya. Their website is kawelle.org.

Hi,
I also recommend a water project. A good friend of mine runs this non-profit in Uganda. http://ugandanwaterproject.com/
Thanks for giving.
