Wayne, I'm not sure about your neck of the woods anymore but here in Alaska I contribute to the Special Olympics. For those short on the cash end one can volunteer for any number of special events held throughout the year. The nice part about this is one can volunteer and donate needed cash without it being plastered all over the place. You may want to check this out.
With respect to what many have commented on here I really think America and the rest of the world need to sit down and have a serious discussion regarding birth control. Far too often, here in America and Alaska, I routinely run into single parent households on government assistance of some sort or another with the mother of 2-3 children expecting another soon. If all it would take is a big tv to prevent this sort of thing then I'm all for it but unfortunately it isn't. I think we as a nation should end subsidized childbirth and find solutions to the root problem. I agree, solutions to prevent poor decision making is the key.
