AR-News: (US) Charity Asks; Should You Give?

[Animalara2003 at aol.com]

I don't like to give to an organization that uses any tricky way of raising 
money, but some perfectly good organizations send you labels with your name and 
address to put on your envelopes. You're supposed to feel guilty if you use 
them without giving them anything. 

These are from some Indian school in Ashland, Mont. Doctors Without Borders 
sends stickers. And The World Wildlife Fund sends these with pictures of 
animals. I mean, who's mean enough not to give to an organization that helps pandas? 

A lot of fundraisers use the American flag to get us to give. Covenant House 
sends a cross from Sister Tricia.
