Default Ledgies for a good cause

Last year, the possibility of Ledgies joining together and giving back a little during the holiday season was mentioned by a few board members. Would anyone be interested in donating (whatever amount you wish) as a group to a charity this year? If anyone has suggestions for nonprofits, please share. Thanksgiving is quickly approaching so I thought now was an appropriate time to mention this.

No animal stuff. Humans need more help right now.

Under the assumption the cause will be one I support, tho I'm sure it will be, just had to say that in case.

Thumbs up I am game...

for donating.

I have to say we (Deb & myself) like to donate to the American Cancer Society, And will again this coming holiday season.

Besides, If things work out as expected, yours truly will be the volunteer (For the hospital Deb works for, Which raised over) dressed up in drag next summer during the "Walk for Life" for the American Cancer Society.

I was thinking the American Cancer Society, or perhaps Toys for Tots.

Keep us posted on the legal developments. After the year you all have had, you deserve some good news.

Someone should make a poll..and we can vote on the charity...I think that would be the best way to do it...we love bein democratic!

And maybe if you wanna push for a certain charity, within the thread--basically make your sales pitch for the one u think is the best...set a deadline for voting, and then majority wins..
