Dear MoveOn member,
It's tough out there this holiday season. We all see the signs: a family member out of work, a neighbor who still can't afford health care, or a child not getting enough to eat.
So as a community, MoveOn and its members have chosen a few extraordinary nonprofits to support together. From thousands of nominations, we've voted to support Habitat for Humanity, Feeding America, and Planned Parenthood with our combined dollars.
Together, our goal is to raise $150,000 for these organizations—to help provide food to hungry families, build safe housing for those with no place to call home, provide health services to low-income women, and much, much more.
Can you donate to these vital organizations today? Just click here:

The top vote-getters span a wide array of work, but they do all have one thing in common: a mission core to helping people in difficult economic situations.
Habitat for Humanity International is an ecumenical Christian ministry that welcomes to its work all people dedicated to the cause of eliminating poverty housing. Since its founding in 1976, Habitat has built, rehabilitated, repaired, or improved more than 400,000 houses worldwide, providing simple, decent, and affordable shelter for more than 2 million people.
Planned Parenthood Federation of America is the nation's leading sexual and reproductive health care provider and advocate. Planned Parenthood affiliates operate 825 health centers nationwide. Each year they provide sexual and reproductive health care, education, and information to 5 million women, men, and adolescents worldwide.
Feeding America is the nation's leading domestic hunger-relief charity. Through a nationwide network of food banks, the Feeding America network provides food to more than 37 million low-income people annually. And you can make a difference today—each dollar donated to Feeding America will help provide 7 meals to men, women, and children facing hunger in America.
Around the country, nonprofits are doing important work to help people in need and to reverse our economic crisis. The need is staggering, and funds are scarce. Please donate as generously as you can today to help these organizations in the crucial work they do.

Our teenagers.
Never heard of "Feeding America", but now that I know they're propped up by Soros and MoveOn.org, I'll avoid that "charity".
$150,000? Boy Soros is a cheap pig.
F Habitat.
They are a blight on every community they infest. Our crime rate shot up after the county shoved it down the throats of a nearby area just prior to them establishing their own city.
Another “community” they built nearby did not meet the zoning for the area in size and configuration. Somehow they got a pass. I am sure the neighbors in their upper six figure homes appreciate the enlightened town council and even more the inhabitants.
Planned Parenthood—Herod the Great, founder. Still p___ed because he missed killing the Christ child.
Feeding America.
I would rather buy Angel Food like I do for myself and give it to a needy family.
Planned Parenthood - Murder for hire, for genocide and profit.
wow, in your face.
Just how much money do you have to piss away to be an “extraordinary” non-profit?
