Commentary

There are lots of good causes out there which ask for financial and material support. Think military veterans’ associations, services for the homeless, various medical fundraising outfits (cancer, heart disease, etc.) and many of these do indeed receive positive responses from the public. In all, this is a positive aspect to our societies as governments cannot do everything and the average citizen can step up and feel good at the same time.
