Many of us are lucky enough to be earning enough money to have food and a roof over our head. I researched ways i can help others by donating the money i make here on mylot. I hope this information gets everyone thinking about possible donating whatever they can to a charity. I doesnt matter which one, what matters is that you care. I researched what you money can buy at different charities and here is what i came up with.
At the united way twenty five dollar can provide laundry soap for 100 street youth, fifty dollars provides preschool classes for an immigrant child,120 provides 24 hour help for victims of domestic violence. If youd like to look at all of them go to united ways website.
At habitat for humanity your money can help build houses for people that wouldnt have them otherwise. For ten dollars you can buy nails, for thirty five you can provide roof shingles, for fifty you can buy a toilet, and the list goes on. Visit thier website for more information
There are so many other good charities to donate, i want to know if youve ever donated your mylot money or ever will? If so/ if you plan to in the future what charities would you choose and why? This is cheesy but together I really think mylotters can make a difference.

Well I would donate mine to the American Diabetes Association since my daughter suffers from Type 1 diabetes, but since I already donate alot to them then I guess since I save my mylot money then I could consider that donating.

Its def easy to donate to a charity that hits home. I too have a family member with diabetes, and i think this charity is a great one! Its great to hear that you donate a lot of you money to this charity, I dont see the point in life if you dont try to help others. There are always people out their that are worse off then we are, so why not try to help. Thanks for your response and kind giving!

I think everyone will come out ahead when they help others. Its soo easy to do too. Im not sure why most people dont do it. I think in american society people are all about whats in it for me. When they should really be thinking who can i be helping. It is good to hear that there are still people out their willing to help out. When I cannot send money I can always donate my time.
