What charities did you help? We can all help. Did you know 95% of Americans don't help in charities. That 5 dose a damn good jod though. Please, most of the 95% are rich, I don't understand why people won't help! What if everyone helped, think of what the world would be then. If I can give up my time to sing in front of hundreds of people, and raise 9 grand for a homeless shelter, so can everyone else. For those of you that won't give your time to something, you have no reason unless you don't have a penny to your name. Don't tell me your poor when you can affotd a computer, internet, and a house. Please, I begging you to help out next Xmas. Please? I would be so honored if you do. I just felt like no one cares. Could someone prove that I'm wrong. Please?

Excellent question. I volunteer at the VA hospital, help the veterans eat their food, change their clothing when they get dirty and cannot do it themselves.I do this 3 times a week. And yesterday I just mail 2 packages for 2 of my friends in the military. So not everybody is selfish and doesn't think about others. Because I do. Iam blessed with what God has given me and I like to share that blessing. Oh, another thing, yesterday when I went to the store, the lady behind me had a lot of little things she was going to buy, and I saw her counting her money, right after I paid for my things, I took two of her products and paid for them. She was sooooo surprised that a stranger would do that, that she followed me to my car and just kept thanking me. I did not do it for the thanks I just felt in a giving mood. That is me.

Well, I live in Atlanta- so around here you do not know who to believe or not, they come into the churches and claim to not have food and christmas for their children, but yet they have gold teeth, bling(gold chains) and out side a SUV- I do not donate anymore, ppl cant be trusted.
However-- I DO DONATE TO ASPCA--- Animal fund.

I cooked part of the dinner for 40 people in a senior citizen residence who had no place to go and no turkey dinner available to them.

I admire you for thinking about this.
I volunteered to help at my club's Thanksgiving lunch, but all I did was take photos and collect tickets. Tried to make people far away from home feel welcome and happy.
I wish I could have done something more useful.
