Week 3 EOC: Making Money for Good

 I am a frequent shopper at Target and the are always donating to something. Education is were there biggest donation goes. I am big on education for the simple fact that education is the key to success.
"In terms of giving cash as a percentage of income, Target was followed closely in the ranking of top contributors by a host of national retailing chains and consumer products companies putting up cash for charities. Those charities ranged from educational programs in local communities to support for environmental causes."www.forbes.com
Since our children are our future, they need all the help we can give. They didn't ask to be here so those that need help should have the option to get it.
"Save the Children is the leading independent organization creating lasting change in the lives of children in need in the United States and around the world. Recognized for our commitment to accountability, innovation and collaboration, our work takes us into the heart of communities, where we help children and families help themselves. We work with other organizations, governments, non-profits and a variety of local partners while maintaining our own independence without political agenda or religious orientation."www.savethechildren.org
This organization comes close to home for me. My mother and great aunt both had breast cancer. I am a strong contributor to breast cancer. 
"Susan G. Komen fought breast cancer with her heart, body and soul. Throughout her diagnosis, treatments, and endless days in the hospital, she spent her time thinking of ways to make life better for other women battling breast cancer instead of worrying about her own situation. That concern for others continued even as Susan neared the end of her fight. Moved by Susan’s compassion for others and committed to making a difference, Nancy G. Brinker promised her sister that she would do everything in her power to end breast cancer forever."komen.org/
