were killed by

their husbands,

former husbands

or boyfriends.

This is just one fact....to know more visit their website.

This sounded like fun

and if you are interested

you can call the number above

or click on the link for

Lakeside Curative Services, Inc.

and use the contact us tab

at the top of their page.

There was no information about the benefit on their website.

I must say that even though this sounds like a fun day

neither organization

is doing a good job

getting the word out

about the benefit

or their organizations

and what they stand for.

mmmmm.......I wonder who is in charge of spreading the word????

I know I have written about

"The Peace Fund"

(Protect Educate Aid Children Everywhere)

started by Adrian Paul

before, but they updated part of their site.

One way the organization raise funds is by holding online auctions.

If you have something unique, a "hot" item

(I.E. Something in high demand people not stolen....

do not even let your mind go there.),

or if you have

a news program, magazine, newspaper, blog, website,

et cetera you can help spread the word.

To find out more about the auction,

to help them out,

or to receive a press release please click on the link below.

You will also be able to learn how the organization started,

who is involved (loads of celebrities),

and other ways you can help.

Charities on My Space (links included)

Here is just a small sampling

of the non-profit organizations and charities listed on Myspace.

If you go to one of them

you can always check their friends

to see who else is on Myspace.

It is a good jumping point.

You can always try typing in a charitable organization

or some other organization

to see if they have a Myspace too.

All of these had a way to donate,

but some were better at

giving detail information about their organization.

They all had links to their website though

and that is where you

will probably get the most

and best information for any of the organizations.

Donate % on E-Bay for The Peace Fund

You can now donate to "The Peace Fund" on E-Bay.

Actually you were able to starting sometime last year.

If you decide to sell something on E-Bay

you can donate anywhere

from 10% to 100% to your favorite charity.

It is nice to have the option of donating to charities,

especially not big charities like (The Red Cross)

that gets most of the media attention.

Of course they always need help too.

The big charities get so many requests for help

that they struggle sometimes too.

It is just that when the big charities need help

the big charities seem to get the media attention

from local and national broadcasts in major times of need.

Whereas, the smaller charities

do not seem to get the same media attention

and need the word of mouth help

that blogs

and celebrities

and the fans of celebrities

or television shows

and movies can give.

Together we all can make a difference.

Who knows someday it might be me or you who needs the help.

I am struggling to pay off bi

lls right now

and just do not have any disposable income, but maybe somebody reading this blog

or someone else's blog

does have the money to donate.

I hope so.
