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.

Look to the Stars--Link to finding what charities celebrities help included

Have you ever wondered what charities your favorite celebrity helps out?

I started to receive Google alerts on blogs recently and I received an update today.

One of the updates is is from Look to the Stars. It is a website that lets the public know what charities some celebrities help out. I do not think every celebrity is listed here, but there are from the looks of it at least a couple of hundred celebrities to browse through.

There are also a tabs for causes, news, partners, videos, interviews, and more.

This seems like an interesting site to find out where famous people put their time, money, and name to. So, if you are curious check them out.

I was routing around the net tonight and came across this charity: The Nature Conservancy. You can donate once, become a monthly donor, and look for projects near where you live.

Just a friendly reminder to check out all charities before donating either your money or time to see if it's a good fit for you. There are also sites that you can check out how much they actually spend on overhead or how much money they take in and how much of it actually goes to supporting the cause.

You would be surprised how little money some of these charities actually give to their cause. When you see these big events that celebrities go to remember that a lot of them get paid to be there, somebody has to pay for their plane tickets, the food, the flowers, the hall, etc., etc.

Not all celebrities are doing these things because they truly believe in that cause. Many times it's just to boost their image if they've been complete idiots in public, or to keep their names and faces in the spotlight somehow if they're having a run of bad luck with projects, well you get the picture.

Then there are the celebrities that truly care, because they actually go to lawmakers to try to change things for the better. They also spend time in countries and with people if most people are completely honest don't want to go to or be near people with diseases or that are different than you.

Hey, that's human nature, but that doesn't mean you can't change. It doesn't matter what country you live in or what religion you are we are all on this planet together. Maybe it's about time every single person realizes this.

What happens in this country affects everyone around the world somehow. The same goes true for anything that happens in China, Africa, anywhere on earth for us. If it's bad in other countries where do you think those people are going to go to for help?

We do need to help our country first, because folks it's getting worse every year. That doesn't mean ignore the rest of the world. There are many people worse off than us, but if we are a stronger nation in every way than we are better able to help others.
