I know this post doesn’t fit in with what I normally write about, but this week I am giving away $100 to the charity of my readers choice.
Why, you ask?
Because Millennials care about the world. And I’m always going around saying that Millennials care about the world. So here I am, putting my money where my mouth is.
Because I have to. It’s true. I’m a member of The Luci & Stan Sunshine Family Foundation and every year I’m in charge of giving away a certain amount of money to charity.
Because I need help. There are sooo many charities, and when it comes time to give money away I never know who to give it to. But my readers are very smart (some much smarter than me) and I know you will help guide me into choosing a good charity.
Because I love my readers. I really do! I love my loyal readers, one-time readers, and even the mean comment posters. And I want to give you a chance to help me give back.
Help me choose: All you have to do is comment on this post with the name of the charity you think I should donate to. The charity with the most comments wins the money. You can only vote once! I don’t care how many people you tell to vote, but you can only physically vote once. Your vote must be cast by 9/7 at midnight CDT.
Rules: These are important!
- The organization must be a 501(c)3 organization (because the Government says so!)
- No religious or political organizations (because I said so!)
- You can only vote once (because I want it to be fair!)
Oh, and one last disclaimer: The final decision is up to me and the other members of the foundation. I don’t see anything happening that would prevent us from donating the money to the winning charity, but if something goes horribly wrong I can pull the plug at any time.
Ok, GO FOR IT! Comment and let me know where I should donate this $100 to. Share and evangelize your favorite charity.
(Also, if you don’t think $100 is a lot of money to a charity, you are wrong. It buys ten mosquito nets for kids in Africa, or over 100 meals for people who have no access to food. I’m sure these charities would agree that every little bit counts.)
