So, this is a public entry and I shall tell you why.
I have €1000 to give away to charity. But so far I haven't found one and I'd like to give the €1000 to one charity rather than split it down.
- I thought Cancer Research, UK because cancer is part of my family now as much as we all want to forget about it. But at the same time we do want to forget about it - so I'm torn between doing the right thing and then trying to not associate myself to it. I also need proof it will go into research, and I want to see that. I don't want my €1000 to go into more letter headed paper.
- I thought about Make A Wish Foundation because as much as I rant about not wanting kids of my own and hating other children when they're annoying I actually have a rappore with them and if I can't grant a wish (I mean, want can I grant a child) I thought about giving them money so they could grant a wish. BUT I want to see the wish come true. I want it to go to the child and not to admin costs or wages. Just to the child and I don't think they can do that.
- The other thought I had was not donating the money. I don't know if in Ireland they have the Big Brother/Big Sister thing (probably not) but that would be one other way I would use the money. Actually spending it on someone that needs it.
Fact is I have €1000 that I don't want to spend on me, because I don't have any reason to spend it on me.
