Charity Requests

[hazydaisy]

Today's mail included 4 letters asking for a total of £123
Anybody else have this problem?

I do get them yes, afraid I mainly shred them.

My Charity is mine to arrange.

I have too many needs in my family, the local food bank, and the Big Issue seller. Never buy it at £2.50, but just always give him food, a few Bob, or one or two of the wife's fags. Nothing left to give.

[hazydaisy]

Just had yet another pop up on here!

[woofgang]

No, I only get very few

[Theland]

Homeless guy calling tomorrow to do a garden tidy up, £15 for two hours. It's difficult balancing act.

Get at least one Charity bag every Day,thinking about leaving my Wardrobes on the path so they can help themselves.!!

I get a lot of these letters asking for money, it's how charities survive. I don't get angry with them, rather I choose one or two a month and donate and try to spread it out so they all eventually get some. Worse things to worry about imo.

[Georgiesmum]

I get them all the time but I dont let it bother me as I dont have any spare cash to give them Im afraid.

On a monthly basis, I donate to four different charities. Any extra requests from others go straight in the bin.

I do donate a lot to charity shops. I have far too much 'stuff'.
