EDGEWATER -- I don't think I am alone in receiving donation mail, receiving address labels, greeting cards, note pads. nickles, dimes and even $2.50 checks, you often wonder how many are scams. Send in a donation once and you are on their list forever.
But today, I hit the jackpot. Here is a list of organizations looking for donations from $10 to $250. Paralyzed American Veterans Marine Corps., Heritage Foundation, VFW Veterans of Foreign Wars, AMVETS National Foundation, Wounded Warriors, The National World War ll Museum Memorial, Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, Florida Sheriff's Association Easter Seals, Tea Party, Alzheimer's Association, American Heart, Arthritis Foundation, Judicial Watch, Faith Freedoms Coalition, America Needs Fatima Boys Town, Children's Miracle Worker, St.Jude's.
The count is 19 at only $10, but it adds to $190.00. Can you believe this? So what did I do? I chose from the 19. The rest went into the trash.
