Do you Donate to Charity?

[The Devil Man]

Boom! It's that time again! Devil Man Poll time!

A quick Poll!

Do you donate to charity? Yes or No?

If Yes, which Charities do you donate to (or sponsor?) and how long have you been doing so for?

If No... why not?

Devil Man, despite a Post in another one of his truly excellent and fantastic high quality Threads, DOES donate to charity. He coughs up £20.00 a month to Shelter (A Charity in the UK which helps homeless people). I don't do it to feel good about myself. I do it because I want to.

What about you guys? Do you pop money into a collection box? Or do you sponsor a charity?

[Polaris]

Charity sometimes... I'm a very good person!

[My_car_is_faster_than_you]

All the freakin time. Sometimes I give more than I can, and I myself become charity.

[Agent Proto]

I sometimes donate to the fire department. My mom doesn't like it when I do though.

[Bunny]

No. I earn my money through relative hard work and I do not feel like giving any other person on this planet a free ride. If someone wants money, they need to get a job. Or find some other way to get an income. Nobody needs charity.

Homeless folks have their cans. I will let them have my soda can after I am done drinking it if they want.

[Jowy]

I'll throw some change in the Salvation Army buckets around Christmas time, but that's about it.

[bipper]

Of course I do. I used to live off of some minor welfare benefit called wic. I know how rock bottom feels, and I appriciate not being there anymore.

Yeah, that's it for me, too.

Donate sometimes...

[Rainecloud]

I sponsor my family every single day. :/

As for Charities? I give small amounts now and again.

[Cz]

Generally the answer is no, but I did give a substantial donation to the Boxing Day Tsunami Relief Fund a couple of years ago.

[Skarr]

Whenever I'm asked to donate for a cause or relief fund, I gladly give money.

But donations in church are always limited to a dollar. It upsets me when my church says they're building towards a $300,000 mark.

[McLovin']

I am charity.

And I don't have enough money! So keep donating...

[sephirothishere]

no.... a IM charity case.....

I'll go tell AIDS research to check the classifieds.

Whenever I see those little cans asking for money for the Janeway or whatever, I always throw in the change in my pocket.
