If you really wanted to, what could you do that would effectively help a "Homeless Person" regain his ability to prosper?

Over the past few week's I have probably gave about £150 - to charity.. Everyday someone is always wanting a donation for something or other.. Today - I had to say - enough is enough..I simply cant give anymore...does anyone feel the same ? Should we get a receipt for when we make a donation so we can show it - to other collectors to avoid any embarassment ?

My daughter doesn't go to school there but she takes a weekly PSR (Parish of Religion) class every Monday evening.

I got a thick envelope today with a lot of pretty "Offering" envelopes enclosed and the first one says "Initial Offering" and at the top in the middle it says $2.00, like that's the amount they're trying to get us to contribute. What amount is too cheap though? I have never done this before, I don't mean to sound stupid I just don't want to come off as not generous. The envelopes even states that "God blesses a generous giver."

What should I do?

A better question to ask is how to help create wealth for all. So what would you do to help all people to become wealthy?

Your old car must be able to be reconditioned. Nothing that should really be in the junkyard.

The people that are working on the cars are retired mechanics that want to donate their skills to help some needy persons.

The company of course is a not for profit.

Earlier this year, I saw the movie Invisible Children. I wanted to help in any way possible. I thought though, who's going to listen to an 18 year old, people may see this video and think, "oh, thats sad." Some may be interested in helping but for one reason or another don't. I wanted to know if I tried doing something (what, I don't know yet), who would be interested in helping, even if its just as simple as spreading the word about it to people you know?

I am a volunteer for the American Red Cross, and have been for several years. I am on call after-hours for Armed Forces Emergency Service needs (I help families of those serving in the armed forces to get messages to their soldier / sailor / marine / airman, and vice versa.).

After a very few, but very well-publicized, instances of misconduct on the part of Red Cross workers in the wake of Hurricane Katrina, the organization has declared that no one may volunteer without submitting to not only an CRIMINAL background check, but also a CREDIT inquiry.

If I were in a position to have my hand in the cookie jar, as it were, I would be better able to understand this. As it is, I am doing a job for which they would have to hire someone -- a job that intrudes on my personal life considerably, with calls at all hours of the night. In effect, I have chosen to do them a favor, and yet they want to know if I pay my JC Penney bill on time, or if I have a student loan.

What say you?

It appears that Professor Muhammad Yunus with his "Poor Bank" is abusing yahoo answers by posting an advertisement as a question. And many more people are doing the same thing. Is this what yahoo answers is for or should advertising be prohibted?

Or are will be have questions like, "Is Cherrios with it's Heart Health benefits better for you than bacon and eggs?" which are (true) but clearly an advertisement?

Companies already pay people to send out "spam" emails. Will companies start paying people to ask questions on yahoo answers promoting their products?

Is that what you want? If not report the abuse!
