Helping Out

Just wanted to remind you about our pet charity here at newsfromme.com.  If you feel the need/desire to donate to help the unfortunate folks in Oklahoma, there are many fine charities that will do good things for your money.  But I doubt any of them will do more good with it than Operation USA, which spends none of it on fancy offices or outsized executive salaries and such.  They spend darn near all of it on people who need clothing, food, a place to live, first aid, etc. — and they're good at getting there fast with it.

Years ago, I was being pelted with worthy causes asking for donations and I decided to just pick one and send all my "giving" money there. A friend of mine was (and still is) on the Board of Operation USA but that's not why I picked it. I picked it because I asked around and found out they were real good at what they do. And that's what those people in Oklahoma need right now: Money and people who are very good at what they do.
