Why don't we all?

Nice idea .

I do give to charity. I have a monthly direct debit set up for the NSPCC. You're right though..more people should give to charity. Even just dropping off used clothes to charity shops instead of selling them on Ebay is a really big help.

I applaud your generosity. Maybe I am just getting old, but there are very few charities that I give monetary donations to anymore. I will give of my time, and I do, but no longer give money. I just don't believe that it goes to where it is supposed to go to anymore. I do my share, soup kitchens, cleaning local animal shelters, helping senior citizens, veterans organizations and more. So, instead of money, tomorrow, I was going to do a couple hours work at the local animal shelter, and I will do an extra hour now just cause you asked!!! Have a great day!

I think the reason people dont give as much to charity as they used to in the old fashioned sense of sticking money in the collection tin is because of national charity days like comic relief etc where people donate on the night. Also with so many different ways to give I think we still give as much, we just donate by different methods such as credit card or by text message.

We have a standing order which donates 6.50 a month to the Wildlife Trusts. I am very happy with this and have no qualms telling other collectors I already give. May be I could afford more but I am happy with my contribution thank you. Your point is reasonable enough and nicely put - I think tomorrow I will donate a fiver to the first person that asks.

Why not put your loose change in a bottle and at the end of each month, donate it to a charity of your choice....that way, 12 groups get support....

OR....

Instad of going to Glastonbury Festival (or another event)...have your own BBQ and invite friends....charge a small fee and set up the music....that way you don't lose your tent, you have decent toilets AND you are with friends....plus of course, the charity benefits

I really wanted a Diet Dr. Pepper, but I guess I'll give my money to the Feed Hungry Children collection can at the store instead.

i give to charity all the time n ill tell you y people dont want to because they r selfish and very ignarant to wats going on in the world the only world they know is there own , i totaly agree with you n people should give more to charity well done for saying sooo hunnie xzx

LOL it's a good idea, but don't forget some people find it really hard to give up smoking and the money they save from it is often their best reward. So maybe just the coke money for now eh?

Charity begins at home, id rather give my time to charity as they end up not seeing much of the money xxx

well if i see the salvation army kettle tomorrow i'll drop a fiver in

but, i disagree with ur statement because unlike u, i am living week to week and half the time have to rob peter to pay paul and i really CAn't afford it
