Any charity that has good looking advertising spends too much on advertising and not enough on the actual charity.

I have a monthly direct debit set up with the WWF, as a rule I only give to animal welfare based charities.

With the caveat that I'm a member and do a significant amount of pro-bono work for them, Amnesty International.

As well as giving money, buying goods from charities helps equally well (Oxfam offer fair trade coffee, tea and chocolate, most charities offer credit cards, etc.).

What makes American war veterans more important than the millions that are starving around the world?

American war veterens are the reasons why America is still the "land of the free and the home of the brave"; why Naziism was defeated; why Fascism was defeated; why Japanese imperialism was defeated, why Communism was stopped at the 38th parallel in Korea; and, with the help of war veterans of our allies are the main reason a lot of the world is free. Freedom must be won in order to reign in the stupidity as the reason why there are millions starving, which is usually the result of corrupt dictatorships, corrupt government, warlords who let their own people starve...without veterans, America may well become one of these hell-holes...but I seriously doubt it...now, to really answer your question, by my placing veterans ahead of starving people I was in no way downplaying the importance of helping them out...just merely reinforcing the reality that without freedom, hunger usually follows...: N. Korea, Sudan, Somalia, Iraq, Cuba, Rhwanda, Ethiopia..and on and on...

Love that avatar!

I think the Preventing Me Mugging You Fund is good...

WWF, and cancer foundations are good.
