This Year's Site Charities

Last week MoneySavers voted on the charities they'd like to see donated to. The top five are:

Samaritans www.samaritans.org.uk/

Confidential emotional support to the suicidal or despairing.

Re-Cycle www.re-cycle.org

Collects unwanted bicycles and ships them to Africa (my personal nomination, as I was once a trustee, so yes I'm biased, and I'm not ashamed of it ). A little charity that is does a lot of good, its both environmental, financially clever, and helps build self-esteem. Worth looking at the site.

Wateraid www.wateraid.org

An international NGO dedicated exclusively to the provision of safe domestic water, sanitation and hygiene education to the world's poorest people.

Christians Against Poverty (CAP UK) www.CAPUK.org

By partnering with other organizations throughout the country, CAP aims to relieve poverty through debt counseling, advice and practical help. CAP’s unique approach empowers people to help themselves out of poverty and be released from the fear, oppression and worry generated by overwhelming debts. Vital financial and budgeting life skills are developed through our services thus ensuring poverty relief is sustainable.

Send a Cow www.sendacow.org.uk/

This charity provides proper sustainable help to enable those struggling against poverty in Africa to farm crops and livestock to feed themselves, and also for sale.
