There are two websites where you click a button to donate food to homeless veterans and animal shelters. Its free, and only takes a second. I find it sad that the animal shelter website gets so many more clicks and donations than the veterans website. I wanted to put both of them out here. You can click once per day.

    Seriously, there is no spam or anything involved so it's worth doing.

    also, I think it's once per day from a particular IP address... sooo....

    you should be able to click from your home pc, work pc, and mobile phone. Possibility of six clicks per day.

    I love this website.
    The ASPCA is also an awesome site to donate to if you have a bit of pocket change.
    I calculated how much money I used to spend smoking, and decided to make it a monthly contribution.
    It feels really nice knowing you are helping those in need.

    Both of these websites are run by CharityUSA.com, LLC. They are registered in the state of Washington. 12% of their contributions, direct and from advertising and sales, go to the charities they represent.

    If you want to help homeless veterans or animals, find a local veterans group, or shelter, and a local Humane Society, and give them money directly. It will have far more impact.

    true, but you can do both. Clicking is free and easy. I donate my time and money to my local animal shelter and the local VA where I can be of help.

    No need to give a thumbs down to this.

    12% is better than 0%
