I don't usually give money to charities. Maybe the odd loose change when a charity tin is held under my nose. I give blood instead, which I think is much more benefical to people who need it.

Ah, then lets include things like blood or material things as well then in the question . Me, generally when i have too much change i put it in the next charity boxes i see when i remember (i don't think there are any bad charities really?), but when i can i seek out wildlife or environment conservation charities/trusts (sometimes anmal sanctuaries too, as they help keep the streets and feilds clean of sick, unwanted or mistreated animals, which is a good thing) i can donate to.
The only thing i am wary of is charities that actually do the things with the money you intended it for- there are some dodgey charities out there.
I would like to make larger more direct contributions though, i'm saving up money to directly help charities with their aims, like there was a wildlife conservation area near where i live that needed a large donation for a new stallion to help continueing breeding a very endanged breed of native horse/pony etc.

The last charity i gave money to i can remember was a cancer one for children. 'Cos i'm always ending up with loads of spare change, every penny helps u'know? I'm also gradually building up stuff i don't need anymore (like old clothes) to just give to general local charity shops and things.
Just curious though if there's anyone here that donates stuff/money to any particular charities or particular types of ones.

I have "adopted" two kids for World Vision, a Christian children's charity. I was proud of their response to the 2004 tsunami and donated more at that time. We also give at church and to a non-profit Christian radio station Air 1.
I like to support education and other local liberal political causes.

I no longer give any money to animal rights organizations. I have cancelled my World Wildlife Federation membership and one other related to the San Diego Zoo's conservation effort after I found out about efforts to get people from other countries to stop eating dogs.
