Some people decide to leave their house/money and possessions to charity, rather than leave it to a person or persons - regardless of whether they have any family left or not. If you were deciding to leave your money to a charity, then which one would you choose and why?

I have done a poll

I know a couple of people with Epilepsy. It is not a nice thing to have and it takes over your life and you have limitations. It is a worthy charity - but there is soooooooo many

Sorry if I went too far on my opinions regarding Epilepsy. The two people I know, also have different strains of the illness. One has fits frequently and has the worse strain, but the other does quite well and hardly has any. Like you say - drugs can control it

I'd split it between Shelter, Cancer Research and Dogs Trust.

none, I want pockets in my shroud

Seriously though I would probably leave it to SIDS which I couldnt see on the list. I would choose this charity after losing a nephew to sudden infant death a few years ago.

I can't remember the name of the charity I love. I think its 'Wish Upon A Star Foundation' or something like that. It makes terminally ill children dreams come true.

Make-A-Wish Foundation UK.

Although I would give to EVERY charity if I had the money, as each charity works to help different people/animals.

Lmao!

I saw it once on The Road To HSM2, and these children got to visit the set. They had so much fun.

I feel bad because each charity deserves it.
