DO NOT EVER GIVE MONEY TO AUTISM SPEAKS!!!!

Please remove them from the list and do not give them any money.

there are millions of other sites explaining why autism speaks is a horrible group - do not support.
Some of those links have alternative autism charities you could support instead!

Thanks Remi, I have 2 grandsons with Autism.........but the reason for this post is so everyone can add genuine charities to be considered . the local shelters in my area pocket the money and it does not go on the needy. hence no recommendation from me on them
Trimmed my post above so the link with the three alternative charities is the only one there.
I know that's what this post is for, that's why I'd really appreciate removing Autism Speaks from the list?? I don't see how your grandsons add relevance to the fact that autism speaks is literally the worst and it would be a mistake for any money to go towards them?
The way you put that makes it sound like you don't think it should be removed or that my warning about the charity isn't relevant?
Like I could be misinterpreting what you mean though.
I left it hoping some one would come up with a legitimate charity that supports Autistic Children not for any other reason. I really didnt know any thing other than the name.

Bimbolands is an international site .so the charity can be international. The goal is to select a Charity by Sept 30th to give the treasury to. for example because Autism speaks supports and encourages sadistic behavior towards autistic individuals they will not be considered legitimate or worthy of our money. Thank you Remi for the heads up there. on the other hand "the Haven" in Idaho where HLB lives is considered to be legitimate

Oh sorry fair enough! You didn't say that in your post so I assumed.

I also really like HLB's idea of supporting a women's shelter local to Bebe.

Lilliandra ,There is an animal care on the choices .I gave the citizens of Bimbolands what I considered to be  a variety of worthwhile causes,doctors without borders,wounded warriors  for veterans,breast cancer,st judes which never charges parents if they cant pay and dont have insurance. these causes are worthwhile and benefit a lot of people.

I wrote that post before noticing the poll.. it was in response to the following:

"As most have been told here the funds in the treasury are real money earmarked for charity. now I could be a real ignoramus and just choose a charity with no regard to democracy or how others wish to see their money delegated but that hardly seems fair. so instead  I will toss out the names of Charities that came out in the weekly meeting and let you also add names of charities and then we will have a series of votes via poll to choose one Charity to donate the treasury funds to.
International Red Cross
Feed America

legitimate charities that support Autism 
Wounded Warrior Project
challenged Athletes
Feel free to toss in your Ideas as we will vote until One has the most votes."

So.... in response... I tossed in some ideas. When I saw that there were entire nations literally surviving off mud cakes... broke my heart. Not to say your choices aren't valid... but entire nations literally living off salted mud... breaks my heart so as per the post I was responding to... I tossed out some ideas... Sorry If that was taken in the wrong way...  PS: Red Cross.. not to say they don't do good things.. but look at the amount of money the "owner" of red cross has... charity? maybe? you tell me ;)

Just hang on to your ideas for the next time when we have to donate again.
I too came up with a good idea although a bit too late:

So I was watching this video on VICE about MOAS (Migrant Offshore Aid Station) and they briefly mentioned Doctors Without Borders helps them out so I'd be inclined to vote for them. On the flipside if you felt moved by this video perhaps you would like to donate to MOAS.

It was really difficult trying to find charities where most of the donations actually went to the intended recipients and not to the people running the "charity" as an office expense. and then trying to make sure the majority were international and not just concentrating on one small part of the globe was another Challenge  ie most 3rd world countries have charities and other groups just flocking to them with assistance.main line non 3rd world countries also have hunger,lack of medical etc that gets swept under the rug.I tried hard to choose  charities that served  the needs of a large group.
