It would, but we already blew past the 1k. Thank you, though!

I made the new donation and added it to the op. I lied though, I donated the total we got to as of Golden Bee's post, which was $1390. Thanks everyone for donating!

and of course you should continue to donate

Really thank you so much :glomp:

If you're interested in helping other organizations dedicated to making the world less poo poo consider the Southern Poverty Lawn Center.

SPLC is one of the most prominent and effective anti-hate/discrimination/intolerance non profit organizations in the US. They're keeping tabs on shitheads nationwide and sponsor awesome initiatives to promote equality for all. If there's injustice you can make a good bet that SPLC is doing something to fix it.

if you wanna post somewhere else but don't know what to say here's what i'm pushing on my facebook

quote:

RAINN (Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network) is the USA's largest anti-sexual violence group. The work they do advocating for victims of sexual violence and and working to support them is what makes them indisputably one of our country's most important charities. If you haven't heard of this organization or haven't supported them before, please consider doing so now. I've made my donation and plan to continue doing so. I want to see people show their donations, too! Post a screenshot of your support, no matter how much or how little you give. Let's do something Good!

https://donate.rainn.org/

it'll format nicely on fb but I'm incompetent at social media so if anyone else wants to make something else do it! :toot:

Everyone is wonderful!!!

Just a note, $10k is about how much money David Fahrenthold has been able to find Trump having personally given to charity from 2009 to when he got called out about his promise to donate to veterans funds. 2009.

I used to think this subforum was pretty stupid but I'm impressed you guys actually raised $22k+ for a good cause. Good job my dudes.

Donated $100 with a $100 match from my employer.

Might as well ask this here: are there other threads on here with suggestions on what someone like me -- a progressive with a whole lot of privilege who is (somewhat ashamed to say) minimally politically active -- can do to support the fight for civil rights, environmental protections and other progressive causes? Donating to charity is great and I'm certainly open to supporting causes with my wallet, but I'm also just a bit clueless in other ways I can contribute my time/money/energy to make a difference.

When im less emotionally burnt out I'd be happy to make an activism thread in a day or so with a list of good causes and a poo poo ton of ways to get involved. Ive got some resources saved from my own personal experiences. Lemme know if theres any interest in that and if theres any suggestions on who to highlight (SPLC is at the top of my list). Id be happy to work on researching local orgs too
