QOTD!!!

If someone gave you 1 million dollars that you HAD to donate to an organization, who would you give it to?

Re: Better late than never QOTD!!!

AHH I can't even pick just one...

I have 3:

1 - Peta... or an animal organization. I have a real soft spot for cruelty against animals.

2 - Cancer Research. I don't believe there isn't a single one of us that doesn't know of someone that's had cancer. I think it's seriously on the rise and affects SOOOOO very many people!!

3 - I don't remember the name... but that clean water one.

There are so many worthy causes!

Four of the ones that touch me are:

1. Ulcerative Cloitis & Crohns
2. Lupus
3. Cancer
4. American Heart

Good question! If I had to pick an already exsiting organization it would be the ASPCA. But I would love to start my own organization and give 100% paid in full grants for IVF to couples struggling with infertility.

This is my answer as well. If I could I would def start and organization for couples suffering from infertility.

Make a Wish Foundation. I just love that they are able to give a little bit of happiness to children who are suffering so much.

An existing charity - i would say American Cancer Society

But i would love to start my own non-profit Adoption agency -- adoptions are so outrageously expensive and it would be great to help those who just want to have a family but arent loadedChat Icon

I'm biased but Make A Wish.



one of my best friend's and MOH's nephew was just granted his wish from this foundation. He has cancer of the soft tissue. It's all over... his lunges, bones, stomach, etc. He has a 50/50 survival rate. He is 5 years old. It's so sad.
He wished to go to Disney and ride the parade with Mickey.

Ummmm Disney in FL or Disney in CA? Cause I worked kind of as an ambassador to the make a wish kids and dreams take flight (the canadian equivalent) to all those kids when they came to CA and I also used to escort the grand marshall in parades. I wonder if he was one of mine????

Re: QOTD!!!

I would start my own organization that gave fertility drugs/treatments to women whose insurance doesn't cover it or they can't afford it.

I can't imagine being denied the right to have a child because of the inability to obtain fertility drugs for one reason or another Chat Icon The idea of that breaks my heart.
