Question: Is the 20/20 special about charitable giving tonight at 9:00 central?

It is not listed in my T.V. guide or in todays paper, but it’s on the 20/20 web site. Do they sometimes not have the specials in all markets or is this just a last minute thing that they couldn’t get in the paper?

Question: Charitable Donations, what cause should I donate to? Please read as have specific requirements.?

Can someone help me. I have a company that is looking to donate a few thousand dollars a year to a specific cause. I wanted feedback on some charities, and causes that meet the guidelines. We are trying to really make a difference. I know any money makes a difference, however we really want some cause that we can impact them.

Meaning if we donate 10k a year to the Cancer Society it is needed, but 10k to children in Africa for rice I feel would make more of a difference.

Please post suggestions about causes and specific websites that we can visit to see if they are up for a donation. We want some causes that really will impact lives and has a low cost to impact that change.

For example there is a dental care service in the US that can give a child a full treatment for $10. A Breast Cancer Screening Service for a mamagram for $25. I really want to impact peoples lives in the US that have a low per person cost.

Please help

Answer: I can't tell you where to put your $. Though I want to applaud you for wanting to help our own right here. While there is so much needed throughout the world, we often forget those we pretend not to see right here in our great country. Our country could be so much greater if there was less need amongst our own, so my kudo's to you!

Here are 2 links to charity rating sites. They look at the charity's overall effectiveness & how it spends it's donations. They should help you choose the best place to donate to.

edit:

I just read the above poster... so many that with just a bit of help can achieve so much. Congrat's to you! I hope that many see & learn from your own experience!
