    I bet the previous recipients rather they had your donation than not

    bullshit and hogwash




    apologies I rarely post things like that but it's not the amount or even the charity you choose....it's the fact you're at a place in life where you can do two things:

    think about giving
    giving

    Godfather, I believe you said you match it.... so pony up.

    Godspeed my friend.
    Sorry it took me so long to hit up this thread! I originally was going to give to a similar charity to whatever you chose but locally. As nothing compares to what happened to RC`s fallen brothers, I'm giving to this charity too.

    I've also joined my company committee that works for united way so I can give back to the community more this year. I'm not sure what our goal is yet but I hope we can raise a number to be proud of.

    Alrighty, done. Great cause.

    I'm glad to see a few thousand dollars, but someone compared this charity's worthiness to that woman bullied on the bus.... this obviously deserves far more Charity is weird...
