Seattle Area Feline Rescue in Shoreline, WA - a non-profit, no-kill rescue connecting people in our community to their new furry family members. And this is where I met my beautiful "Sweet Boy"

Freedom From Religion Foundation

Kiva is a nice site. My wife has reinvested the same $100 like 50 times already over the past 10 years

I'm a Kiva donator as well. Have been for several years.

If I donate it's to a local women's shelter here in town.

I’m a DJ... So I donate my services to bennifits of local people In need... Great feeling being on the Mic and expressing the importance of giving...

The Rabies Challenge Fund [rabieschallengefund.org]

The humanist project is a good one. Others I know of are Habitat for Humanity, Adopt a river, HridoyaBangladesh.

Mine is Building for Generations, which helps children in Tanzania, Peru and in Santa Cruz CA .

When I have something to give I give it to Unwed Mothers ... to help them get their start,

Great. I tend to donate to people in my local community - there is a special needs couple in particular that I have assisted.

I volunteer with the Starfire Council. They assist people with special needs in a variety of ways. Very rewarding use of my free time

The Elton John AIDS Foundation. Well, I do not live with AIDS/HIV, I have people in my life that do. Second to that would be The Canadian Heart and Stroke Foundation.

Heifer International is a good one. Instead of just food or money, donations go toward gifts that can help a family or individual become self-sufficient.

City Harvest. They collect surplus but otherwise good food from grocery stores and restaurants that would be otherwise thrown out and bring it to soup kitchens for the homeless.

I am in the UK favourite charity is Age N.I - (Northern !realnd) I do small jobs for people washing ironing and mending they give me money and when I get to a hundred ounds I send them a cheque I don't think htey get much support, but do good work for the elderly.

I give every month for the last decade to Plan USA. I did volunteer work translating letters from "adopt a village" type charity but it was religious, so I looked for some kind of nonreligious charity that helped with sustainable projects. I have been happy with the work that Plan International does

Overall: [kiva.org]

The A+ Team specifically: [kiva.org]

I make a monthly contribution to Doctors Without Borders and Foundation Beyone Belief.

Cat protectionleague. Gotta love cats.

The local animal shelter, the health clinic where I used to work, Planned Parenthood, and myself, ( or maybe I should say the heating oil company, electric company, the grocery store, etc. )

The Air Ambulance service.

Also Kiva and over the years a number of similar projects. I prefer the grass roots approach such as these.

ASPCA
