Charitable Giving Websites
April 16th, 2006Charitable Giving Websites
Question: Looking for websites that allow you to give donations as Christmas presents to others?
Instead of sending the usual edible cheap gifts to family members, I would like to give donations to charitable organizations in my family member’s names. Like send a stocking or gingerbread house to kids in the hospital or provide meals for the hungry, etc. Does anyone know of some good resources or websites that facilitate this. Ultimately I am looking for a more convenient way of doing this that will also send a card letting them know what I have done, etc. Any ideas? Thanks.
Answer: I don't want to sound pushy but, If you would be willing to help and individual, I would like to put my name forward. My husband died last year after about 5 yrs of battling Hepatitis C and having a liver transplant. My daughters (teens) have gone without because of the high medical bills and only one income we had. I thought this year would be different but I lost my job and got behind. I am now working but I am trying to catch up on all the past due bills so again there won't be anything left for Christmas. I am not asking for anything extravigant, but my girls could use the basics, some new clothes, jacket, ect. Or we could use a donation for groceries.
If you would rather not help an individual, there is a great website its www.modestneeds.org that help individuals with verified requests.
God Bless and have a Merry Christmas
