If you had 100 dollar to donate, to whom would you give them?

in #life6 years ago

There are many organizsations that want money from you, and many of those for a good reason. But who are those?

That is why today I want to ask you a small question: If you had 100 dollar to donate, to whom would you give them?

Of course if you are already donating you can tell that. I am just curious who you deem worthy of "your best"? Perhaps you even pay with cryptos?

Sort:  

Do not give any money to the Cancer Industry.
Never have i seen a more retched hive of scum and villainy.
(pink ribbon, NCI, any cancer awareness)

And when you here from someone asking for donations, ask how much of it goes to the charity. Usually it is under 50%.
So find ones with over 95%.

I don't think ther is any charity that can do a 95% rate towards the goal. Everyone needs to pay something, even if it is just the phone costs.
And for many charities it is moving their people that is the important point. Like doctors without borders. Would you say their plane tickets are "towards the goal" or just the medicine they use when they are there?

I found many such charities. Usually they are local, and providing a very visible (if you look) service.
Children's Hospitals. Soup kitchens. Homeless shelters.
They usually have a foundation that is just a couple people and phones. That is how they give 95% to the charity.

Most of the people that call you on the phone asking for donations is not the charity. It is a group using the charity's name. And, like you said, they have costs. These companies pay people to call people. And usually they take 50%.

Why are you so much against cancer stuff? Some personal experience?

Personal experience and personal experience and personal experience!
And then i learned about other things and more things.

What would you think of a group of people that did bad science, based off of killing people and then refined their works to torture people as long as possible? That is what cancer research does, literally.
Actually, the do far worse, as they are looking for treatments, anyone who even talks about cures is black-balled from the industry.

And this organization will KILL people who practice other ways / other methods.

SolarAid is a good charity, the SolarCoin community did a big donation a few years back (in SLR).
