I never gave before a few yrs ago. Then I grew up and grew a moral standpoint. I realize that my goals for the world will not get done if everybody 'thinks' about something but does not 'do' something. Nothing gets done without money and I am not poorer/richer than the next Joe Schmoe, so I might as well step up.
I contribute $42 a month to 3 different charities. It gets billed on my credit card.
1 charity, the ASPCA, I KNOW is working hard. The other 2, are more my ideals, rather than me thinking they are making alot of progress. Those two only get 1/2 the monthly amount the ASPCA gets.
Thats a bit over what I can afford right now, but I was once able to contribute $40 a month, and will once again, and it's just frugal living in between.
