my cousin’s son had MD, needed one, all they offered was what he had standard wheel chair.
The only organization I donate to is the Leukemia/Lymphoma Society.
My FIL had lymphoma 15 years ago and over the 5 years of his treatment, he had trouble paying some of the medical bills.
He went to Leukemia/Lymphoma Society and they picked up the tab for about 90% of what he couldn't pay.

For us it’s St. Judes or Salvation Army where we know what we donate will be put to the use they state they will be using it for. The Union Mission in Memphis is another good place, they have a 85% success rate with addicts.

You have to check out any org you donate to these days. If most of the money goes to ads, mailings and salaries, then they are NOT helping those they say they are.
