Since my grandparents and parents really don't need any stuff, I usually give donations for the holidays. I was just wondering who everyone else liked to donate to.
Planned Parenthood is always a favorite for me (also for my mom and maternal grandma).
I used to like the Heifer Project, but I'm not certain that livestock is the best option in developing countries and would like to find an agricultural/water program to donate to.
badpixie here mentioned that she likes to donate to the Humane Society and I think that's probably a charity that anyone can get behind (I am not going to give my more conservative family members the PP donation card; not worth the potential conversation over the holidays).
Anyhow, it's the season for giving, and I think this is one of the best ways to do it. I'd love to hear who everyone else donates to over the holidays either personally or as a gift.
You know, I also think it might be funny to purposefully give provocative donations, like to the NAACP for my racist grandpa or to MoveOn or NORML for my Republican dad . . . hee hee. maybe anonymously.
