Every Christmas my wife and I donate money to charity. Last year we found that after "admin" fees, approximately 15 percent got to those in need. Could anyone suggest a non high costing charity?

I got a promise ring from my bf on our aniversary and I can't find it. I have looked everywhere that I can think of. Its possible that I lost it at work but i'm not sure how. I doubt I have overlooked it. And it really means alot too me. So I got to looking on the net and found one just like it and am thinking about replacing it. But I'm afraid that my bf will get upset if i buy my own ring because of sentamental reasons. I don't know what to do!

You now how people say they are so rich that their daddy could afford anything they want. Then some people don't think about others who are sick in hospitals and need the money to get better.

Then there are people who love to help people who need the help. They don't care how rich they are. What would you rather be...rich in LOVE or MONEY? Maybe even both, I don't care.

I was interested in Habitat for Humanity but not after I found out that are a christian based group. The home should go to the needy, not the needy who also happen to be christian.

help these people get off the streets. is the reason that these people are living on the streets because they are mentally ill and refuse help? are there task forces that try and get these people into shelters and into some program to at least help them get cleaned up and try to get a job or does this not exist? is help already there for those who are willing to accept it?

My wife and I have 2 small children (ages 1 and 3) and we want to start teaching them about giving and kindness, especially during the materialism we are surrounded with during the holidays. Are there any ideas for volunteering with small children? The ideas we have so far are to spend time with lonely nursing home residents.

In a way it motivates you to give, and in another way it kind of stirs up the greed or selfish side of you. What is your opinion?

I just have a question. I was wondering if anybody knows any programs out there to help families with children for christmas. I have some friends who really don't have much at all and have fallen on hard times andI was wondering if anybody new of any programs that helped enrich Christmas for the children or what there is out there. Christmas is for families and being together but I just wanted to see if there is any way I can help them feel more like "normal" times...they have very young children but not alot of money. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

I am sick and tired of ads for charitees. There should be some way to disable them after you have donated. Not all of us can afford to continue to donate everytime one comes up. Sure, we do it for a few, but then they should stop. Any one with me?

i graduated from college a year and half ago. i have had jobs, but none that have lasted for more than a month during this time. i have a degree in fashion design and only had one job as an assistant designer, but then i quit after a month (unfortunatley) . since then, i have been working on my own designs and my own website which is still under construction. i have also been a seller in ebay, and have had lots of customers and great sales, but now i'm looking for a real job cause i'm moving out. i have sent my resume out, but i have no luck, but in my resume i haven't listed all jobs that i had, only jobs that have lasted for more than a month. should i list other jobs that i've had for less than that maybe 2 or 3 weeks as well? also would it be okay for me to list in my resume that i worked from home and sold on and off ebay? i don't want people thinking i was just being lazy, i was trying to start my own bussiness, but it hasn't worked out. how would i list that in my resume. thanks

me? I would fake myself into the Billioinaire's Boys Club. Record all their shams to rip-off the American people and post it on the internet!

So what if I become "slime me" again because of what I did.

Post yours!
