I really wish I knew of one if you get an answer let me know. I'm poor myself but I always donate at least 2 gifts a christmas to the needy.....my older sister's name is Charity not because it was a pretty name but that as a single mother back then my mom relied on charity and 2 jobs to be able to keep the baby that everyone else told her to give up. My mom named to her Charity to pay tribute to the people that helped her keep her child well-fed and clothed.  Thank you for doing your part to help people like my mother feel like they are not failures as parents for working as hard as they do and not be able to buy their kids gifts for christmas. Every gift is a smile on a childs face.

I do, when I have a chance and I see them, I give them money and bring them to a Homeless Charity House. I wish I could do more than that! :(

B"H\nYes!  Abosolutely!  And, it's so "in" right now - all the celebrities are doing it.  Just add the request to your wedding invitation along with information on how to easily donate to your preferred charity.  \n\nYou can check out how different charities rate against each other, and see how much of every dollar actually goes to the cause, as well as research charities by topic and location at the link below.

Although most charities are legitimate, there are quite a few charity scams. And you certainly don't want to give your money to scammers!\n\nHere are nine tips to ensure your money goes to worthy causes:\n\n1. Do some research on the charity. If you're trying to figure out whether or not some particular US charity is worthy of support, check out:\n\n==> http://www.give.org/reports/index.asp\n\nThey publish their standards for rating charities, and then rate over hundreds of different charities using these standards.\n\n2. Don't give to charities where most of the money goes to executive salaries, administrative costs and fundraising. The website we just recommended, Give.org, presents a pie chart that shows the percentage of money going to programs vs. administration and fundraising.\n\n3. Always find out the exact name of the charity before you send a check. Many fraudulent organizations select names that sound very similar to a legitimate charity.\n\n4. Make sure the charity is tax-exempt under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code (again, for US subscribers). Otherwise, you won't be able to deduct your contributions on income taxes.\n\n5. Never donate if the caller uses high-pressure tactics or insists you donate now.\n\n6. Always ignore phone calls, letters and emails telling you that you won money or a prize from a charity, unless you specifically entered a contest. These are almost always fraudulent.\n\n7. Avoid charities that won't send you written material before you donate because it's 'too costly.' If an organization has something to hide, it's very likely fraudulent.\n\n8. Don't give cash donations, especially to door-to-door solicitors. If you know the charity and want to contribute, never write a check made out to 'cash.' Always make sure the check is payable to the full name of the charity -- that way it can be cancelled if you suspect fraud.\n\n9. Never give your credit card number to door-to-door solicitors, or in response to a bulk email. In fact, don't give your credit card number unless you are completely confident about the authenticity and good intentions of the charity. Otherwise, you may find yourself the victim of credit card fraud -- or even worse -- identity fraud.

Hey, why not donate the money you'd have spent to charity?\n\nSalvation Army, local food banks, St. Jude's Hospital, Operation Gratitude (or other veteran charities) are good places that help people.\n\nMy conservative family was never big on buying lots of stuff for Xmas - or any other time, either, but always spent on charity. My wife's liberal family spends lots and lots on stuff, but rarely thinks about charitable donations. Hmmm.....

I am shocked to read this question... and not in a position to comment... I request you please do not do it... donation does not mean charging money…I hope you would take it in a positive way...

You'd be better off vetting the existing charities and development organizations with a proven track record and choosing one that meets your criteria, then, raise funds in their support. A suggestion, try Googling NGOs and start your search that way. Good luck!

I like giving. I always wanted to be a philanthropist but I can't really afford it.

Yes, i think many people would donate - one thing i have\ndiscovered is that no one will donate if they don't know\nthat you are out there, so ADVERTISE!  Maybe in stores,\nchurches, daycare centers, etc. - with a flyer (min.cost)\nand you will probably get loads of responses!\n\nGood luck - great idea - many families to appreciate your\nefforts!
