My, you are a demanding fellow -- go put yer gear in the corner, and point the speakers out... yorofl:
Personal motives and specific circumstance, not some organizational or financial status determine the recipients of my charity.
I choose to donate to not-for-profit organizations such as veteran charities, blood banks, etc.

I have done my share of these things over 25 years, bad thing about it is, if you do one seems like they all start calling you. One i was doing and then found out one of the persons that got me, well when they hired a dj , it wasnt me, so I have mixed feelings about it. Then again I have a saying that I'm not a 501-C ,, dont you hate these people making 100,000 a year wanting us to give our services for free. So i now do things for my church,,,

Retirement/Hospice Home - I've also done this in the past.
Veteran's Organization - Most definitely.
Masons, Elks, K of C, Rotary etc. - Nope
Chamber Of Commerce - Yes. We do something to help out at least once a year.

Since the poll was so restrictive the answers are above in :triwink:
If it feels right for us and we have the time we have no problem helping if we can. We've had pretty good luck working with the organizations that we've helped out. That's the way we roll. :triwink:

Most likely fund raiser for "Walk to Defeat ALS" but I was a young couple and would have welcomed a hand early in life...soldier on active duty back then.
about 4-5 times a year, we do karaoke sing a longs at retirement homes on Sundays from 5-8. We put the words on a projector so the crowd can sign a long with me or someone from the crowd thats signing.

I voted for veterans. But if we are talking actual money donations I give to the cancer foundation regularly.

But you see the whole reason for giving selflessly to (insert organization of choice) is not because you hope to get recognition or something in return for your generosity. It should simply be good enough to feel good about what you've done, period. That's why it's called "Charity"
I do a yearly, "National Night Out" for a local city, but that's not where my heart is...
I love animals, and I will gladly provide my services gratis for ASPCA, non-profit animal charities.

I do a monthly benefit at the VA hospital that benefits the Fisher House.
The Fisher House is similar to a Ronald McDonald House, but for the families of active duty combat wounded soldiers. The Tampa VA hospital is the spinal cord injury center in the national VA hospital system.
