I receive many calls from “cancer charities,” too. Every time, I tell whoever calls that I wish I could help the charity (which is true), but I’m currently unemployed and financially broke and still paying off medical bills for cancer myself.
Every single time, without fail, their response is: “Well, what can you afford? How about $20? $15? Even if you have just $5 to donate, it would go a long way.”
LOL. It just makes you wonder...
