Aww Doug you are very charitable

thing is you dont have to stick your hand in your wallet everytime, you can donate things like Garinda said, i gave 7 bags of clothes to the heart foundation & felt good for doing so because they sell it on to raise money & if they couldnt sell it or as i gave quite a lot, it would also be circulated around other charity shops - therefore potential of helping raise money to help a host of people improving their life chances.

I do worry about a lot of charities that it doesn't go to the right places & find it best to donate monatry to recognised charities direct. Im not sure about the earthquake & tsunami set up donations but even at a local level kids had a funday & raised funds would go to these events, so even still it all helps.
