<p>Thanks goes out to Matt for another great suggestion. Thanks Matt!<br />
This time its <a href="http://www.smallcanbebig.org">Small Can Be Big</a>, an organization that takes 100% of every donation and applies it to a specific expense or urgent bill to help a family in need and keep them from homelessness.<br />
They do a way better job of explaining the process on this <a href="http://www.smallcanbebig.org/how/">page</a>. But the gist is:</p>
<blockquote><p>This is where you come in. When you lend your support to a family in need – whether it’s $3 or $300 – 100% of every penny you give goes directly toward addressing a specific family need. No middlemen. No hidden costs. No time wasted. Just an uplifting, tax-deductible gift that goes to a landlord, utility company or hospital awaiting payment.</p></blockquote>
<p>This falls in line directly with the model of Skip a Lunch. Small donations that in masse can create change, help, or hope. Please check it out and in their words, &#8220;Help more directly, more personally, more locally, more shared.&#8221;</p>
