Wow ryan, that's awfully nice of you. I guess you're changing your ways, feels good to help out doesn't it? lol.
I'm actually signing up for Americorp. They'll probably be sending me down to rebuild if I get accepted. So, you may not be seeing much of me in a few months (if I do, in fact, get in).

You act like I don't care. I do donate part of my income to selected charities every month (or causes, for that mannie).

I can't remember where it was, but there was a topic where you talked out pretty adimently against charity. At least I thought there was, maybe I'm mistaken and it was someone else. If I am, I apologize.

Nice. I have been debating about whether to donate, I in fact have $100 set apart in "tithe", basically a ten percent i take off whenever i get income, which I later use for charities and stuff. I don't know if I will send it to the hurricane however, I know a charity right here in Orange County that my friend runs in fact, and they get money, then get food, clothes, and blankets for poor or homeless people that need help. I know that it is a good charity because I have gone with them to deliver the stuff. I will probably donate mostly to that, because that is closer to my heart and I have seen friends go into bankruptcy and stuff and need help, but I am probably going to still give money to the hurricane efforts. Not alot, but maybe around like $60 or something.

our school is collecting $ for the relief, and my dad and i together donated $100
(we both gave $50, but the check is written by him)
if you think that is not a lot of money, consider that i am in 6th grade, and that it was about one fourth of the $ the school got that day :lol:
