As the year starts, we should all look for ways to help the ones that are not as fortunate as we are.
Even if you do "some good" only once a year (after Santa came by and you feel obligated), it is still better than nothing! Check out the following websites:
DressforSuccess - Provide interview suits, confidence boosts, and career development to low-income women in over 75 cities worldwide
SewMuchComfort - Provide adaptive clothing to wounded service men and women in military hospitals
Clothes4Souls - Provide clothes to people around the world who are in desperate need
PlanetAid - Provide clothing to people in developing nations, and fund community, health, agricultural, and vocational programs
Soles4Souls - Distribute shoes to people in need in over 125 countries
DonatemyDress - Provide special occasion dresses to girls who cannot afford them for prom, sweet 16, quinceañera or formal events
SAFE - Collect items to give to children in emotional, traumatic, or stressful situations
LovingHugs - Send stuffed animals to children living in war zones, refugee camps, orphanages, hospitals, and natural disaster areas
WorldComputerExchange - Provide used computers and technology to schools, libraries, community centers & universities in developing countries
DevelopAfrica - Provide books, school and teaching supplies, scholarships, and job-related training in Africa
SportsGift - Provide sports programs and equipment to impoverished and disadvantaged children throughout the world
Of course, there is always Goodwill and the SalvationArmy as the "classic" ones.
But if you wanted to branch out and you did not find any charity that interested you yet, you should check out this website : CharityNavigator
With love,
