Hi Susan,
This is a tough one for me. My vote depends on the finances of the organization: if it's struggling my vote goes to it.
Feeding the poor is important, but if there's another charity that needs financial help I would want to help it.
I have heard of the Chesapeake Bay Foundation (even though I'm half way across the country from it.)
Before everyone gasps and says she'd rather save marine life than hungry families-what a horrible person. Here is my reasoning. I work for a non-profit program that provides free medical care and education for teen mothers and their children.Even though people love to help kids in need, many draw the line at "girls who shouldn't be having babies or sex anyway." We are struggling to survive and so personally I would help the charity that most needs the money to keep on going.
If Chesapeake is rolling in funds, then I change my vote to the Food Bank.
