I give to the Human Fund

Last week was my wife's birthday.

Our two sons and I gave a donation in my wife's name to a local pregnancy crisis center for her birthday present. We called that one right- she was so pleased.

Now we are all looking to do it again for an inner city mission for everyone's gifts for Christmas. I think its gonna be great.

Thanks monster.

I didn't find a poll option that fit so I refrained. But there are a lot of good thoughts in that thread.

In our case, for Christmas my wife, myself, our two sons, one's fiance', and my parents are going to create a money pool that we will all put into the monies we would have spent on each other.
Together we will decide which organizations we will support and how much to each.

World Vision and some local rescue missions, etc. are on our short list.

It sounds workable, I'll let you know.
