Also if a charity sends one a letter, how much is enough? Is a puny letter worth hundreds or even thousands of dollars, as I've noticed the more one gives the higher they or pro'ly the computer generating the letter moves one's bracket?
Cancel
As Tombie said, most of the charities only end up with about 5%
The person who bailed you up is not collecting for the charity, they end up with a cut of your “donation”.
Better off giving blood or some of your time to a local organisation in need
