Do you donate money? How, why, why not?
Do you donate money? How, why, why not?
I was thinking about it. I donate to quite a few charities, but they specifically mean something to me. Others I don't really think about, though they're good. I guess we all have a threshold or we'd be broke and for many that could be no donations at all or just a fiver the the street guy.

I only donate to the Red Cross, too many others are scammers, and I don't have time to filter. I also don't donate blood anymore as most centers near me are for profit and I won't promote actual blood money. I am still an organ donor on the basis of "I'm not using it anymore and the rest is getting burned".
I donate blood at the UCLA Blood and Platelet Center because I know it's going directly to the hospital. Of course I expect it to be used for others, but on a selfish note, it helps keep their supply of my blood type topped up just in case I need some one day.
I wish the Midwest had the west coast's and Europe's perspective on this. But I will not donate to any for profit blood center. Regardless of context.
Yeah I get that, literally blood money
