I heard about this website on the radio. It helps people who don't make enough money to qualify for assistance, who are living just one accident or expensive medical bill away from the poverty line. They apply for grants and you can pledge to various applications, by type of need or location or closest to reaching their goal. It's pretty cool. I donated some money to a single mom in the Bronx whose daughter needs dental work that isn't covered by her insurance. Check it out and pass it on. I think it's a great idea. I'm not far from being one of these people myself, and I'm glad to know organizations like this exist in case I ever get in trouble. |
