Where can someone donate clothes, household items, furniture, and other donatable items without doing so to an organization that explicitly aims at providing aid and comfort to illegal aliens?
Well played.
I always give to Salvation Army first....but, if you are in a Hispanic area...that’s where the goods go. Just the nature of the population makeup.
There are some like Catholic Charities that do encourage illegals. Of course, food banks aren’t going to ask for photo ID before they feed you. Anyway, you’re extremely judgemental and virtue signaling.
They do? I didn’t know that.
“Where can someone donate clothes, household items, furniture, and other donatable items without doing so to an organization that explicitly aims at providing aid and comfort to illegal aliens?”
to avoid providing aid and comfort to illegal aliens, it’s probably best to just burn the stuff or landfill it because no charitable organization that accepts stuff like that checks to see if those who receive it or buy it are actual citizens ...
Your trash can
“You want to cloth the poor? just do it!”
At our old small church, families were always giving away their old clothing to other families with younger kids.
You missed the part about explicitly seeking out illegals.
Why isn’t it? I have the same dilemma and I’ll burn perfectly good clothes and other goods before voluntarily supporting illegal aliens.
“Illegal alien” - which race is that ? And why does opposing it make one a “skin head”?
“You missed the part about explicitly seeking out illegals.”
no i didn’t ...
“Donations to charity are to give to PEOPLE who need it. That is why they are donations.
“It is NOT the same as ensuring tax $ are not used on illegals nor does it encourage illegals to come here.”
So government welfare does encourage illegals to come, but private charity doesn’t? Why would that be the case?
What does that have to do with it.
local non denominational church
Salvation Army
You can help your local communities by donating things to your local thrift stores, but find out where their money goes.
We shouldn’t be worried about what some charity thinks if we don’t want to support illegal immigration.
*Charities* should be worried about what *we* think if they do support it.
that wasn’t my point, although I’m not surprised that you didn’t understand it.
This is a dumb question that illustrates the dumbing down that modern evanjellycalism has undergone.
It’s not a spiritual question.
It’s intention is to be emotionally manipulative.
It presumes to grant some kind of moral authority, by falsely appealing to Jesus, to support something that God’s Word actually forbids, once you get past the little list of out of context verses used to demand that we “luv da stwanger.”
you’re worried that your discarded eyeglasses will fall into the hands of illegal aliens?
that’s what this is all about?
I want you to pick up the phone and call a charity. Ask them that exact question. Let me know how it goes. get back to me after you’ve done that.
Which is *precisely* what I responded to. If you really meant to say something else, then you should have said so, rather than expecting complete strangers to read your mind.
