Alzheimer's Association (the disease runs in my family)

SO many to choose from! I'm trying to decide which organization to approach about organizing a fundraiser....most likely for the homeless, or scholarship fund for underprivileged students, battered women or people suffering eating disorders/obesity. But there are so many great causes...hmm have to pick one to start with.
