Fuhgeddaboudit Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 Well, I'm not Catholic anymore, but I'd still like to hold on to actually doing something for the Lenten season. Was thinking of donating to a few charities, but I'm afraid of giving to charities that pocket most of the money. Do any of you guys know some good charities that don't even take a single penny?
Rizz GAWD Lav No Cap FrFr Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 Do you have a specific intention with your money, IE using it to benefit education, help homeless, feed children in impoverished areas, etc? There are many different charities that are legitimate and worth donating to, but it helps to know what you'd like your money to go to.
NYRangers92 Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 how about you help a poor fellow Ranger fan pay for college lol. Make the check out to The Human Fund of Pittsburgh, PA

No particular order - cancer research, feeding children in impoverished areas, and education. Looking to split here and there among those. how about you help a poor fellow Ranger fan pay for college lol. Make the check out to The Human Fund of Pittsburgh, PA Haha, I wish I could help but I can barely pay off my shit!
Morphinity 2.0 Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 Haha, I wish I could help but I can barely pay off my shit! So then why are you donating?
Fuhgeddaboudit Posted February 14, 2013 Author Posted February 14, 2013 So then why are you donating? Lol, no I can. I pay off my school for half a semester. Got a scholarship for the rest which isn't a lot. Pay it off with my part-time job. I have enough to do something good for the Lenten season. Not like I believe in it, but I rather make up all the times I actually gave up something as a Catholic kid.

Donate when you get the opportunity to, don't go out and seek it just because you have a few extra bucks

Patrick Bateman Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 I know lol, I'm not in a tight bubble right now Just put it in savings
Aasjs Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 Shriners Hospitals for Children is a great, great place you should check out if you are still interested in donating.
Fuhgeddaboudit Posted February 14, 2013 Author Posted February 14, 2013 Shriners Hospitals for Children is a great, great place you should check out if you are still interested in donating. Yes I am, thank you!
NYR2711 Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 Shriners Hospitals for Children is a great, great place you should check out if you are still interested in donating. This, along with the Ronald McDonald House are great children's charities. You also have the ASPCA as well.
Niagaraiceman Posted February 15, 2013 Posted February 15, 2013 This, along with the Ronald McDonald House are great children's charities. You also have the ASPCA as well. I'm echoing the Ronald McDonald House. My daughters are premies, and they are in the NICU in Syracuse. Since we live about an hour away, they offered to give my wife a place to stay, and paid for our parking for the next month. They will be getting a nice donation from us very soon.
Fuhgeddaboudit Posted February 15, 2013 Author Posted February 15, 2013 Really? Wow I have to look into them then! Thanks for that info
