actually, very close to what i wanted to set up with the assistance of other investors . i wanted both a fund for iraqi war veterans children and also one for iraqi war orphaned children in iraq. the future truly is with the children and its the best way we can give for a brighter future.

good idea!!! cool.

I'm going to do something in a foundation or grant to Wycliffe Bible Translators. They are doing the Lord's work all over the world.

The Freedom Alliance has been taking care of the scholarships of the children of fallen vets for a few years now. It's an excellent organization backed up by Sean Hannity and many other celebrities. You could just donate to them instead of competing with them.

Such funds pooled could last a long time benefiting more people in a good way over the systems in place by our own government. What are your thoughts on this?

I think it's a great idea, please keep me informed in the future!

Don,

I have a friend who has a daughter who has congenital heart failure and their medical expenses are out of this world. He is a dealer on the boat I like to go gamble on so I know he doesnt make a whole lot of cash. I would like to set up a fund for them.

Just a hard working individual, but she sent 90% of those kids to college. Just think what we can do as dinarillionaires!

I like that idea! EXcellent give them an incentive, a real tangible one, I love to see kids at risk especially, succeed

No to be honest, but that is also an excellent idea....if any one does have any ideas on how to get something like that started once we have the means, let me know!!

I would and will be more than happy to donate a sum of money to that incredible rehab facility, called FISCHER HOUSE what an amazing place for our injured vets. I think this is the payback or thankfulness or gratitude for doing a job , that is and was unpopular and these brave men and women deserve more than words and platitudes, thats where I will be cutting a check.
Children are important too, but I do not support anything that can screach out notes higher than Patti Labelle would ever dream of , when i am paying retail for a steak dinner, I dont get behind. Go hate me but whatever

I think I would prefer to contribute DIRECTLY to a variety of charities that have an established organization. It seems to me my donations would be used more effectively. Adding another layer of bureaucracy, that would certainly require salaries for the administrators, and the uncertainty of an inexperienced collective for the sake of A POWERFUL VOICE holds no interest for me.
