United Way
The United Way drive is on, and we have forms at work for payroll deduction. There is a competition between business groups for the highest percentage of people to sign up. The pressure is on! However...
I had a look at the list of charities support by the United Way. Ottawa's Planned Parenthood (which counsels people on abortion) receives 36% of its funding from the United Way. Pink Triangle, which is a homosexual support group also receives funding. Some of the others sound a bit questionable (IMHO). So... if you choose to support the United Way, I suggest you specify that all of your donation go to one particular charity which you think is particularly worthy of your support.
