Donating to a local church is a very good idea. I don't understand why people donate to national/international agencies when there are people in need in every city in the nation. Personally, I don't donate to ANY cause, cause I figure we all have problems, and I take care of mine, so others should take care of theirs, BUT, if I were to give, I know I'd find a local charity to give to, because it would help people in my area, and maybe, in a small way, improve the lives of everyone in my city. When it comes to national charities, the money tends to end up at the top of the food chain, and not at the bottom where it should go. Call me uncaring, I don't care, but I take care of my own before I start trying to save the planet. :)
