Fellow members of Smarty Nation, we need your help. As we mentioned on the most recent episode of the podcast, we would like to advocate for a charity using the blog and podcast. We would like your help in nominating one. Our plan is to collect a list of potential charities and then to choose 4-5 favorites and let you vote for your favorite. So please let us know which charity is your favorite so that we may direct our attentions toward it.
You can tell us in the comments below, tell us on facebook, twitter (@smartppllike), Google+, myspace (just kidding), or you can email us at: stuffsmartppllike [at] gmail.com.
We will collect nominations until 11:59pm on January 31st EST. Once we have the nominations we will post the finalists and open up the voting. Thanks for reading, together we can hopefully make a difference.
I would like to suggest Penfield Children's Center in Milwaukee. I do respite care with a little girl who has severe cerebral palsy, and her family has received a lot of support from this center throughout her early childhood.
ReplyDeleteCertainly a worthy cause. Thanks for the suggestion Yali.
ReplyDeleteSince Child's Play will be over, I'm going to nominate Hope for the Warriors http://www.hopeforthewarriors.org/
ReplyDeleteIt's a charity that supports wounded and disabled veterans. It's one of the highest rated charities on charitynavigator, with almost all of their charity income going to veteran's services and full transparency.
I nominate the Carnegie Institution for Science http://carnegiescience.edu/
ReplyDeleteI nominate the Center for Inquiry: http://www.centerforinquiry.net/
ReplyDeleteCFI is a great rec and definitely in the spirit of the blog!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Hope for the Warriors....
