Christmas Charity Fundraiser 2014: Poll 1

[Kardan]

I didn't realise it had to be a UK charity - and it's a shame that this rule has had to come in, since it hasn't been implemented in previous years.

Might be worth mentioning in the initial thread next time.

@Wispur; - Is the Russ Foundation not an Indian charity?

Never mind, you just linked to the overall website rather than the UK part of the charity.

Although it does suck that the UK based hospital that we can directly donate items/toys via Child's play charity has a UK registered charity number.

Since my charity didn't make the poll, my votes will be going to the charities that make less than £1 million a year.

@Wispur; can you edit my vote

I thought you could only vote for one charity when I done it.


Can you add;
Alzheimers Society
Parkinson's UK
Blind Children UK

if anyone thinks voting dogs trust is a good idea after kardans post, **** urself

[MKR&*42]

Some of you are so abhorrently rude to other's choices for charities. I'd understand if it was like that kony campaign or w.e. where the ceos got a gigantic percentage of the money, but some of you are just taking it too far.

[Inseriousity.]

I was more concerned bout LACES being so new
That's not to say that new charities are bad but I'd rather give money to a charity that's at least been around for a few years

[Plebings]

i'd really like if childs play was included. if not will probably be voting for one of the smaller charities.
