Charity Donations?
 

Do you donate to any charities?

Countryside Alliance and RSPB :)

No they are Corrupt

A local hospice, and my local City Farm

I used to donate to some of the big guys like Battersea and London Air Ambulance but they seem to waste so much on advertising and sending stuff through the post and people ringing up for you to pay more so I got hacked off with them and cancelled DD

...yes, but not necessarily with actual cash donations as such, there are many ways to donate directly with specific needs ...so I more get involved directly in different ways.../...depending what the needs are and the best ways etc...

Dogs Trust and a local dogs home

Yes, several.
Practically too which is where you learn far more as to how vital they are.

Yes ,Dogs trust ,WWF and a donkey charity .

The local hospice where my mum spent her last days. The staff there were amazing during her time in there and afterwards when they called to check on my Dad. They rely a lot on fundraising and donations.

Charity Donations?
 

I don’t trust any charitable organisations who hound me to complete direct debits !!

I only give to homeless people ( usually it’s guys ... I don’t seem to see any homeless females for whatever reason ) .


I usually give them something to eat and a bottle of water ... or just a quid or so .

You are most Wise

We contribute monthly to several charities including MSF, Combat Crisis and the PDSA we've also sponsored a boy and two girls in India.

Right now only WWF regularly, but I change that up every now and again, and I donate to some of the Facebook fundraisers/Go Fund Me’s etc

I've recently donated to buy a family food and i donated to the stables in London , i heard yesterday they have raised the million they needed and the stables will stay open.

I support my local animal sanctuary :hee:

yes me and my parents donate to a animal rescue group called Stichting Dierenlot, also a dog shelter AnimalinNeed we used to give them some money

and i myself couple years back donated some to IFAW, i got that snowy stuffed toy as a gift

Yes I post on this website

Gawd that brings back memories, i had a Sat job at Etams and we had a litttle girl box like that outside shop and some clown stole it ! i was the one that had to walk to The Bridewell and get back fom police ~ then i had to cart it back to shop ~ those things weighed heavy, it gave loadsa people a laugh though:laugh:

There's still decent hardworking charities out there , if anything the smaller one's need the donations more .

It’s the stories we hear that worry me ..

I read that those town centre charity shops manned by VOLUNTEERS ( usually lovely old ladies ) but each shop is part of an ‘area’ chain / network that is ‘run’ by an area rep who skoots around in between them .. the reps were reportedly on £50,000 + per year !!!

It also suggested that the very little of the profits went to good causes with the rest filtering up to a guy at the top .

Even if the figures are inflated or exaggerated it still worries me ..
