While we see a lot of organizations gearing up to extend their helping hand which is very encouraging, one must realize that contributions made to associations that do not have a 501C (3) tax status are not able to funnel in a 100% of your contributions to the destination as a lot of it gets taxed. So please make sure that your generosity gets absorbed 100%.

We absolutely agree with the statement of caution. In the meantime, for those that would like to make this donation here is a link for an institution that has a 501c(3) status.
