Dulcinea's Insight
- Although most of these sites need volunteers to give time and specific resources, like care package materials, all of the organizations in this section can also benefit from financial contributions. If you don’t have time to offer, make a tax-deductible donation instead. Most organizations in this guide allow you to make donations by credit card online with just a few clicks.
- There are thousands of causes and organizations out there. If you're feeling stretched thin, remember that there are other ways to help besides donating money or volunteering. Check out the community Web sites to help connect others with your causes.
- When using your credit card to make a donation online, check the security of the site by looking at its trusted privacy policy, making sure the site address starts with “https” (the “s” is for “secure”). The organization might be nonprofit, but cyber-thieves certainly are not. For more information on using your credit card securely online read the findingDulcinea Internet Security Web Guide.
