Occasionally I buy girl scout cookies, but normally I just ignore them all. Instead I have chosen to support just one charity called Camp Hobe, having been there and seen what they do.

this thread is so apropos

today I left my house and went across the street to buy groceries
in the 150 or so feet i travelled I got bothered by : Save the Children, Amnesty International and Greenpeace.
on the way back two of the same dweebs asked me for money - I was 'still no'.
so in the 30 minutes I was gone I check my phone messages : sure enough
Big Brothers want money or crap and Firefighters Burn Fund wants money.

In my mail box I have the Childrens Hospital crap, some disease run-n-walk, and Orphans Fund.

and i wont even go what is in my spam box of email.

If I were to give to half of these charities of what they consider a minimum donation I would not have any money left.

and yes sometimes they get really aggressive - which part of I am a student did they not get.
pisses me off.
 
Dont forget, we all contribute to charities both here and abroad, those of who work and pay taxes that is. Much of our tax money goes to help those in need.
