I know it's easy to get overwhelmed by different organizations or people asking for donations. How do you know which one to choose? Which one will spend the money wisely? Is the money going towards what they say it will? Which cause is more worthy than another? Especially for people like me, who feel passionate about many things, it can be very difficult.
I've found that choosing a few organizations after careful research, and choosing something you feel truly passionate about is the best bet. I've donated every year to The National MS Society, Women for Women International, and CARE for the past 4 years. I also donate to Heifer International and the Human Rights Campaign when I can. These are my favorites and they hold a special place in my heart.
But, I also try to donate to something that someone I know is passionate about. My cousin does so much work for the March of Dimes. It is something she feels so strongly about and her dedication is truly inspiring. So, today I made a donation to her walk for March of Dimes. I hope she has a great walk and I'm sure she'll raise a lot of money for the important research. Way to go, Stephanie! Keep up the good work! Keep inspiring people :)
