Charity Organizations In Chicago

Question: Will Obama’s Garden to Nowhere change this election?

Obama grant being probed
$100,000 DEAL to charity: What happened to garden money, other cash?

Obama vowed to “work tirelessly” to raise $1.1 million to help Smith’s organization turn the City of Chicago-owned lot into an oasis of trees and paths. But Obama lost the congressional race, no more money was raised, and today the garden site is a mess of weeds, chunks of concrete and garbage. The only noticeable improvement is a gazebo.

Charity Organizations For Children

Question: How to contact a charity organization to make donations in a childs name…?

My daughters first birthday is comming up soon. My husband and I both have huge families that plan to attend the party..however, our family is blessed with plenty and we would like to ask the guests to bring a small donation , instaed of a gift, so we could donate it to a chairty in my daughters name, and we can celebrate my daugters birthday with a cake and a good time and know that we have spent our money for a good cause. How do I go about contacting, and finding a chairy to donate to? I would like to donate to something like the ronald macdonald house or something that has to do with helping sick children. Any suggestions would be great.. thanks

Charity Organizations Houston

Question: Can you name a few Non-Profit Organizations in the Houston area?

we’d like to organize fundraisers for local non-profits, charities. Any leads you can provide would be helpful!

Answer: I work for a non-profit, but it is a museum. I am sure you are looking to more charitable organizations.

There is the very popular Houston Food Bank. They are always looking for fundraising opportunities. If you contact them, they work with other agencies and could definitely serve as a good networking tool to get to other non-profits. Also try Star of Hope. Both are located in the center of town. Star of Hope near Minute Maid Park and the Food Bank is at 59 North and the 610 Loop. Give them both calls.
Good Luck

Last week my colleagues and I each pitched in some money to play the lottery. We were asking each other what we’d do with the money if we won. I said I’d keep a fourth for myself and use the other 3/4s to start 3 charities. Although I didn’t win the lottery I kinda still want to start the 3 charities.

One is a scholarship, the other is a research fund, the other is a pediatric charity.

The problem is I need million to start each charity. I was going to put the money in a high yield savings account or buy bonds and whatever interest is received will be the money that goes to the cause. that way I can still give even after I’m long dead. Since no one is going to write such a huge check without proof how do you start a charity? I know there’s some registration you have to do to make it tax exemptable. what do I have to do?

If I was going to have a charity drive, and all the proceeds would be divided evenly between all 50 States, what charity would be best to donate to? This charity – donation drive will be at Christmas time. Thank you for your suggestions.
