I gave a coin to a charity worker last week outside a supermarket (she was hot). Thats my charity work done for the year... does that count?

 

HRW is the only group I often trust with my money. I have been giving $20 a month, but I'm going to start working this summer and making a lot more then what I have been doing, so I'll give a lot more.

I've given money to MercyCorps before for emergency relief, but they do engage in food dumping practices. I only donate through specific causes through them. I don't really trust them too much.

There are lots of others I have given too, United Way, Red Cross, but these are also for specific causes, because of some missues of funds in the past.

I don't really belong to many political orginizations because not many people share my politics. I'm kind of a liberal, neo-liberal, neo-con. It makes organizing hard.

I'm not religious and I hate values.

 

I've thought about joining a Jet Li fanclub. I think I still belong to a reading adventure club from when I was a kid.

 

i once bought two t-shirts from peta.. and then knuckleheads kept sending me nickles for over a year...


so i guess peta supports me

 

So they paid 39 cents to send you a nickel?

That's PETA for you. I bet you thought you were paying to help kitties.

 

They sent me nickels before too!

 

i used to donate to church (specifically to the ministry organization that does work for ppl... building houses and churches and stuff) and other religious organizations, but i started budgeting more and i don't know exactly where that money goes to. seems nowadays the only money i give out is tips to waiters..... charles is a really big tipper and forces me to be one too.

 

um...wow...I don't belong to any organizations.

 

belong? none

have donated to and do when I can/they're having a big drive thing... CHEP (child hunger education program, local thing that's expanded tremendously and rocks) and United Way since (last I heard) they had one of the highest percentages of their donations actually going to the people it's intended to help

 

if only every company you bought a tshirt from would send you a nickel......

ive got a library card, does that count?
what about my membership to the local indie movie theatre?
I am also a prestigious member of the "buy 9 get 1 free" clubs of both the bourbon st grill and teriyaki

 

all peta ever sent me was dog tags, thats not fare, i want my nickols !

but i ant get orginized enough for some orginization

 

not a member of any organization but the only ones i donate to are animal welfare ones.

 

I support terrorism every time i fill up my gas tank- that was bad
Uhh I suppport my local kung fu acadamy and the local bars in my area.

I guess thats it. I like PETA but still eat meat from time to time.

 

Damn, what an apathetic society we live in!

No wonder no progress is being made! Our generation is far the those of the 60s/70s. Americans today had rather watch American Idol than protest a bloody war, corporate greed and an Imperial President.

Sorry, guys, you can throw around your sarcasm, but it's really sad to me. I am geniunely disappointed. I thought the HipForums would have more people who actually DID something or at least attempted to, than the typical highschooler mentality of "I don't give a fuck, give me my Ipod."

 

Well, foolishly, I had a little hope.

 

I've done the Walk to End Breast Cancer a few times; I've knit items for Salvation Army collections and for other knitting charities.
