1stMate Matt Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 I always wanted to donate something in the name of the devil! I had other ideas of the meaning of that, but this will do :) Speak up Dozen!

Captain Midnight Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 Two of my favorite charities are St. Jude's for children, and perhaps the American Cancer Society. I love children and can hardly bear to see them suffer, and I have lost many members of my family and friends to cancer, so that is particularly personal for me. Cancer is a dread enemy, and anything I can do to help battle it, I will! "Now then, me bullies!

Capt.

I'll second that motion. I heartily third that motion. I am a member of the Colonial Seaport Foundation since its inception,and a staunch supporter. If you have not joined this worthy foundation, visit www.colonialseaport.org to learn more about the Luna project and the mission of this non profit organization. The Luna is a reality.

Graydog Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Well, i'd be fer the Fisher House http://www.fisherhouse.org/ XXX The Fisher House™ program is a unique private-public partnership that supports America's military in their time of need. The program recognizes the special sacrifices of our men and women in uniform and the hardships of military service by meeting a humanitarian need beyond that normally provided by the Departments of Defense and Veterans Affairs. Because members of the military and their families are stationed worldwide and must often travel great distances for specialized medical care, Fisher House™ Foundation donates "comfort homes," built on the grounds of major military and VA medical centers. These homes enable family members to be close to a loved one at the most stressful times - during the hospitalization for an unexpected illness, disease, or injury. There is at least one Fisher House™ at every major military medical center to assist families in need and to ensure that they are provided with the comforts of home in a supportive environment. Annually, the Fisher House™ program serves more than 10,000 families, and have made available nearly three million days of lodging to family members since the program originated in 1990. By law, there is no charge for any family to stay at a Fisher House operated by the Department of Veterans Affairs; and Fisher House Foundation uses donations to reimburse the individual Fisher Houses operated by the Army, Navy, and Air Force. No family pays to stay at any Fisher House! XXX The Fisher House can be the difference between wounded service members seeing their family one more time or not. They have come through for some folks I knew that were wounded in Iraq. A top knotch organization all round. -Greydog Why am I sharing my opinion? Because I am a special snowflake who has an opinion of such import that it must be shared and because people really care what I think! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
