I'm sure we all give money to the national and international charities and please continue to do so
What I want to do in this thread is have people high light a local charity to them it needs to be a registered charity
Please state what it is and the location,the idea being if you see one local to you and you want to donate you can research it and do so
Hopefully we get 175 charities highlighted that we didn't know about  |

I dont really give to charities. I feel that what charities do, our government should be doing instead.
My beed with charities is that the money that they take mostly goes to the executives that run them. Also, people can only give a finite amount to charity, so how does one decide which charities are more deserving? Lastly, the poor give comparatively a greater portion on thei income than their more wealthy counterparts, which widens the gap between the ones that have and those that have not. |

It is a public forum and you make a valid point but to fix the whole situation is going to take an awful lot of time and effort and right here right now people need help
So for purposes of this thread can we name a few worthy local charities to you that would benefit from being mentioned here
I'll start another thread about the issues and problems surrounding the broken system we have now and feel free to hijack that one with any beef you might have  |

So many incorrect assumptions that I don’t know where to start. I’ve spent my entire career in the charity sector and no, most people in this sector are paid significantly less than in the private sector. I could double my salary by changing sectors. Show me one major charity that spends over half their income on wages! |
