Give to Charity, A-Holes!

I thought I would start this month off right by trying to do something good.  As you all know, we’ve had some epic disasters in the world lately, the most recent ones being the earthquakes that struck Haiti and Chile.  I’m going to provide some links that you can use to donate to help fund the relief efforts there.

Red Cross

World Vision

Doctors Without Borders

Unicef

The Salvation Army

And while you’ve got your wallet out, how about taking a look at these great causes:

Love Harder
Multiple Myeloma is a cancer of the white blood cells and it’s a nasty beast.  Donating will help fund research and hopefully a future cure.  This one is pretty cool because, to the best of my understanding, this was set up within the blogging community.

ASPCA
Come on!  It’s aminals.  Your monies will help make sure they don’t get get beaten up by bad, bad people.

During these economic times, no one expects you to give much.  Your little bit and my little bit creates a large bit.  I’m sure you can find a five dollar bill on the pocket of those pants you haven’t worn in a few months or a couple of coins between the cushions of your couch.  Also, it wouldn’t hurt you to give up your Starbucks for one day and use that money for a better cause.  Plus, think of all that sugar you’ll be skipping out on.  Everyone benefits!

Do it!!
