'Tis the Season - What are Some Worthy Charities to Support?
Posted on 12/9/15 at 1:08 pm

along with local charity work i do, i am trying to expand my horizons. i have 2 that you should all support, but i'm willing to listen to other suggestions.
i personally gave money yesterday to reason.com. The #1 mainstream media outlet for liberty and freedom. It's motto is "Free Minds and Free Markets", and it's a daily read/view that produces a lot of content and does a great job promoting the idea of individual freedom and smaller government (2 concepts that i adore).
F.I.R.E.
this organization is one that i plan on donating to for the first time. it's an organization that protects freedom of speech in higher education. this is becoming a major issue, especially with the totalitarian bullshite being proliferated post-Missouri (Yale just had an embarrassing incident yesterday)

Giving to the less fortunate promotes laziness and poverty. Buy something nice for yourself or donate to a political campaign.

We made a donation to Wikipedia this week; not sure if that is considered a charity but they had a notice about needing donations and we use Wikipedia often.

I don't consider media organizations to be charities.

i do and it's a better charity than many direct-support ones b/c there is a pardox involved with giving to directly help people
giving to an organization that can help masses of people by fostering policies that promote freedom has, imho, a much better and bigger impact

that is actually a great idea
have the OT give candidates and develop a system to choose 1-2 and then set up accounts to fund the support in the name of the site
