Re: Keeping Up With The Richest Of The Rich

I'd set up foundations to help those that fall through the cracks.  The ones that have too much to qualify for assistance yet face an unexpected life altering situation they can't afford to fix.  A hand up and out of crisis.

What is good for the goose today will also be good for the gander tomorrow.

Affordable housing and animal shelters.

I promise to remind myself every day that I am strong, courageous, and resilient.

Re: Keeping Up With The Richest Of The Rich

If I had that much money I would donate to 'Best Friends' animal sanctuary in Utah that rescues and takes in all animals. I would also create a free spade/neutor program for all pets. And to the Mountain Lion Foundation In California.

 

I would also give a big donation to St. Jude Childrens hospitals to fund more research on childhood cancers.

 

I would have a homeless center built in several cities that offered programs for the homeless to get back on their feet again, clean them up and find them a job.

 

There is so much more I want to do but these would be my top 3

I would do what Jon Stewart and his wife do - open animal santuaries. And bring free spay/neuter services where needed. Unlike adult humans, animals don't abuse the system. They are for the most part at our mercy so I feel a sense of responsibility to them

Re: Keeping Up With The Richest Of The Rich

I would really like to help the Homeless, not just with food and shelters, but actual apartments once they get on their feet, and also help single moms to get out into the workplace and have good daycare for their children. I also would continue supporting St. Jude's as I really respect what they do and have been supporting them for years!!!!!I am sure I would be able to come up with more as well...
