earlier this year I started donating ~$25 a month to a different cause. here is my list for the year. it's interesting, but prior to actually donating, I would have thought I'd mostly donate to food orgs. but as it were, I didn't donate to a single food org this year. partly it's cause I know food orgs are getting more attention this year anyway (altho they could absolutely use more help). but also with the election stuff, I really thought a lot about fair politics and unbiased reporting. plus, I volunteered a handful of times at the OC food bank this year so I did technically help fight against food insecurity :)
august - in-n-out foundation, slave 2 nothing (t's 5k)
september - long beach arts council
october - dress for success, miami (a's non-profit)
