Help me decide stuff for a good cause!!

Sep 12, 2009 18:48

This is pretty cool--my old boss at Hogar is offering to donate $250 to a charity of my choice in honor of my 2.5 years of service to the organization. YAY!!! The problem is that I can never decide between all the different good causes out there (which is why I´m into collective donations like the ones made by my phone company, Credo Mobile, or the ones from Earth Share). This time, I would like to be a little more decisive. Here are some of my favorite charities/causes (starred ones are one´s I´ve been personally involved in) listed by category. What do you guys think?

Environment:
-Northern Virginia Conservation Trust
-Arlington Regional Master Naturalists*

Farmworkers
-United Farmworkers
-VA Dental Health Missions of Mercy (Free Dental Clinic Program)*
-Eastern Shore Migrant Head Start

International/Development
-Plan USA (sponsor-a-child program--I sponsor one in Colombia)*
-Oxfam
-Kiva

Any other suggestions?
