Bit by bit, YOU can help
8 years ago
One year ago I posted a journal advocating those upset/confused/angry about recent events to consider setting up a monthly donation to a cause they find worthy.
The two I recommended were:
The Trevor Project, http://www.thetrevorproject.org They provide crisis intervention and suicide prevention for LGBTQ youth.
and,
Planned Parenthood, https://www.plannedparenthood.org They provide desperately needed women's health services, such as pap tests, pelvic exams, breast cancer screenings; as well as work toward pregnancy prevention through the use of contraceptive, and the reduction of sexually transmitted diseases through testing and treatment.
It may feel futile or meaningless to make a small contribution, but that year slipped by pretty quickly, didn't it? Ask any of the wonderful artists in this community, small monthly donations from multiple sources MATTER.
Pick a cause, support it. You CAN help people.
