It is the end of the year again. Looking for a charity to give your money to? Maybe something other than the usual suspects? Here are five organizations worthy of your cash.
1. Ruckus Society
Training the people in the art of protest
2. Electronic Frontier Foundation
The laws on the use of technology that are established today will set the ground rules for a generation at least. Help make sure they are fair.
3. El Futuro and El Centro Latino
North Carolina has the fastest growing Latino population in the nation. These two organizations provide much needed community support in a region that is ill equipped to provide services for Spanish speakers.
4. First Place Fund for Youth
On the day they turn 18, youths in foster care, already having faced more challenges than most of us will experience in a lifetime, are turned out into the world. Help them successfully make the transition to independent adulthood.
5. Poetry Flash
Art in general and poetry in particular are only in the borders of the public consciousness. Poetry Flash, by providing monthly listings of poetry events in the West, helps maintain a vibrant artistic community.
