Charity Requests/Suggestions
December 6, 2007 by rivalarrival
TJM is “passing the plate” for the Fallen Patriots fund, a charitable organization that supports the families of deceased veterans. There’s still a couple weeks left in our fund drive, so if the families of our fighting men and women deserve a few of your hard earned dollars (and you want to make it known that Atheists aren’t the cold, heartless bastards we’re portrayed as) please click the widget and send in some cash. We’ll be collecting until the 15th.
Who would YOU like to support? What under-appreciated group deserves a break?
The Red Cross comes to my mind immediately: Find a disaster, big or small, and the betting man says the Red Cross is the first major support organization on scene.
I also support the ACLU, EFF, IAFF, and FOP.
But, I’m asking YOU! Big or small, national or local, let us know!
Here are a few initiatives that are truly dedicated to freedom, education and accessibility to resources (respectively), but are not always on people’s charity radar:
Americans United for the Separation of Church and State,
The National Center for Science Education,
Clinton HIV/AIDS Initiative.
