Which charities to give to?

Crisis because they do more than provide a bed for the night.
Salvation Army
Children

Salvation Army.
I do not have a religious bone in my body, but my admiration for what the Salvation Army does knows no bounds. They are incredible.

I also donate my time to an animal charity all year round, with a small financial boost at Christmas.

, BBC appeal for St.Martins in the field

and Salvation Srmy

I give to a few charities, but only for animals and children.

Salvation Army and Macmillans

Gonegirl, Tom T Hall's song is so gentle...old dogs and children...but I'd chance the watermelon wine, could do with a taste just now

Making a little go a long way and with minimal admin/staff costs - Mary's Meals. £13.20 will feed a child for a year in various parts of the world (currently over 1.5 million daily). Set a place at the virtual table at the website. (Monthly direct debit also wecome).
I know several GN posters support this charity.

Local charities come first, followed by the RNLI

Salvation Army; they go in where others won't.

My choice is smaller local charities they don't have the income of large charities whose Chief Executives are often on huge salaries.

Sense, the charity for deaf blind children and adults.

I used to think the grey haired man doing the talking was old. He was 65.

in case anyone didn't know what I meant

I put some bits in the food bank box at the supermarket. Also the animal rescue box. Dogs trust get some money if I am flush because they were very kind to me once. DH gave to the Salvation Army, but they do pester afterwards.
It’s just not possible to give to everyone you would like to.

Those on the streets.

You can miss out the water-melon wine.

Children and dogs.
