Looking for a worthy cause to donate to this Christmas?

[Tico]

I know there are many on this forum that like to give money to worthy causes. I've recently become acquainted with this organization: http://www.holtintl.org/intro.shtml and thought I would share the link with you.

Am trying to get something organized with Katwoman and Queen of Hearts to get donations from people down here in the industry to buy presents for needy kids. If we get it together will let anyone know. In the meantime, I donate to Arbol De Angeles.Last year I bought for 6 kids,this year I'm shooting for 10.

Manitas De Amor...

This is an organization that helps the poorest kids in CR. We have been sponsoring them for 3 or 4 years now. Our clients may offer donations as well, directly from their accounts if they choose. More information will be posted in the coming weeks.

Thanks for starting this thread.

Judge and Jake, send me an e-mail glaken@tlanta.com , I would love to donate down there...anyone not comfortable with that can find a donation box or contact at your closest Military base; some of these wifes and kids are gona have a tough Christmas again this year.

[Katwoman]

As Judge said, every year Queen and I collect money to help poor kids and adolescents with cerebral palsy (they need special food and clothes). Also as soon as school is over I'm going with some colleagues to give physical therapy to this kids, because they aren't getting any and they really need it.

I don't have the info on how many kids we are going to be working with this year, but it's somewhere around 10 kids with cerebral palsy and 10 needy kids. I'll call Queen and get the info as soon as I can.

We've been doing this for 3 years in a row now with Judge's help. Anybody that wants to give us a hand can contact Judge, or drop me a line @ da_katwoman@yahoo.com

thank you very much

I'm not sure about the name of the charity, but there is a christmas tree at Fitsimons gym in Sabana Sur where you can drop off presents for needy kids.

Hollywood also contributes to Fundacion Manitas de Amor. A great program for helping out kids during the holiday season.

I have two ideas.

1. The Human Fund

2. Give it to JJ.
