My mother works as a counselor with kids and father is a business owner. I donate to charity.
Winter is my favorite season. I like winter clothing. My parents are both lawyers. I want to follow my parents' career.
I think I can give you a charity to help me with, if you still want to. Sure, which charity were you thinking? I think the local boys and girls club would be wonderful. They are doing a coat drive right now. Have you donated to them before?  Sometimes I can be a little off put by charities because sometimes the money doesnt go where they say it does.  That is something my parents have had to deal with before in their cases so I like to be sure. I have worked with them a few times. They seem to be very dedicated. I understand your hesitation though. If you would prefer, I can do some more research on fund allocation before you commit. You have actually worked with them or only donated?  If you've actually worked with them then it puts my mind a bit more at ease.  I don't mean to be stingy but I've been raised to be careful and look over facts before emotions. I've participated in their mentor program, and I've also helped with organizing the donations after last years coat drive. I haven't dealt with the financial aspect of the charity, but have donated my own funds and always felt comfortable with what I saw.  Then I would gladly donate to them what I can.  I'm currently a student so you know how that can be.  I do have a lot of extra winter coats I could pass along if those are also accepted? Those are always welcome! Anything gently used is helpful. Your time would also be just as helpful as monetary donations. So many amazing kids just need a little one on one time. Unfortunately with school I just don't have any extra time to dedicate elsewhere.  What do you do that you're able to donate time and money to charities often? I understand! I am also a student. I have a more flexible schedule this semester so that helps. I also do most of my volunteering on the weekends. Just a couple hours on a Saturday afternoon 2 times a month really adds up.  What are you going to school for?  When things start to settle down for me I'll think about getting more involved.
