Hi DCUM,
Besides your church/synagogue/temple, what other (religious?) organizations or charities do you donate to? |
I've done time and money at: Habitat for Humanity, Doctors/Engineers without Borders, our church does medical missions to Haiti; more locally; SOME, the food pantry at St. Martins and the G-burg soup kitchen at Epworth |
Look into The Lamb Center and the Greater DC Diaper Bank |
HIAS
Generation Hope Jubilee Housing Pathways to Housing Educare DC Meds and Food for Kids Heartline Haiti Some are religious but not all. The last two are in Haiti while the others work in the DC area. |
Lots of environmental organizations. Have volunteered in Haiti. |
I donate to Matthew 25 Ministries in Ohio.
