Favorite Charities of SVTP

I know many of you are generous people and have charities you like to support. I didn't start this thread to virtue signal but to see what charities you all donate to and why.

At the end of the year I donate a portion of my bonus to my favorite charities and still have about $250 to give.
This year I gave to the following,
St. Judes Children hospital.
Gary Sinese Foundation.
The Innocence Project.
Last Chance Ranch (Local animal rescue)

Local hospital

local homeless shelter

MS society - my mom has MS

Me...

We donate to the preeclampsia foundation, this is a disease many pregnant woman can get and my wife was one of them. It almost took her life and our sons life. We have been active in volunteering and donating during the yearly walk for hope. We also give to ACKC, because my dad has kidney cancer and we donate to this foundation when we can. This past year we participated in the angel tree at church and got something for a child was in need. Also they hd something the knights of Columbus was doing for the children in the cancer hospitals, it was a blanket drive. We gave a couple of nice warm blankets for them. It’s tough sometimes to donate monetarily so we try to volunteer when we can.

Legion, VFW, DAV and Red Cross.

My main charity that I donate and volunteer for is 24 Foundation. They help support cancer navigation and survivorship programs in Indianapolis and Charlotte.

We've also supported St. Jude and Ascent 121 (human trafficking) this year.

Never give charities cash/$, that's how the Clintons paid for their daughter's wedding. Donate time, give a hobo food or milk, or donate dog/cat food...everything else will go to an overpaid executive or to alcohol.

As has been pointed out, some charities are more about filling the pockets of those that run the organizations than actually helping anyone....Red Cross, ASPCA, just to name a couple.

Always research your charity before giving.

With that said, I openly support St. Jude's Children's Hospital, the Shriner Hospitals, and the Salvation Army. Don't forget your local food banks.

My mom always donated to St. Jude, I donate when ever I can, it might not be as much as I wish I could, but they did so much for Anthony and I hope I can pay it forward.

The Red Cross for being so huge, doesn't do to bad on admin expenses. They have paid maybe to much for the head executive. A far cry from not helping anyone.

Based on a personal experience locally, what I saw first hand, I will NEVER donate to the Salvation Army.

St. Jude, Harbor House, Hound Haven (no kill rescue where I got my dog), second harvest food bank and donate items to Vietnam Vets

I donate locally to Burned Out Survivors Fund which helps people that have been displaced by fire with food/clothing/housing etc.

I pay 40-50% of my income in taxes. The government takes that shit and gives it to "charities" I don't agree with.

That’s tough, you hear about so many people and foundations struggling to help people. We can only do so much to help out just like others. If we weren’t nickle and dimed to death by our wonderful government we could give more to helping charities.

Anything animal rescue related.

Why do you state such with that resolve?

I believe this is by design to create a less individually caring more government dependent society.
