Default A bit of help please :)

Hi Guys

I've decided to add a 'charities' category to my website and wondered if anyone here has any requests for certain charities they would like included?

It goes without saying that I will be including the Cancer Research charity (as my mum has just been diagnosed with Breast Cancer) but I wondered if there are any others which are close to peoples hearts?

If you could also point me in the direction of their website please that would be great so that I can link directly to them.

Support Australian Charities Online

Thanks guys

Rach xxxx

Hi Rach, think that is a fab idea.... not sure what you have out there, but obviously cancer ones, (very close to my heart) but also things like guide dogs and NSPCC......good luck Ems x

None particular but children's hospitals deserve as much as they can get.

Actually just remembered, a guy is going about building a young adults equivalent of a nursing home type place that really needs stacks more money. I will get the link. Teenagers and early 20's at the moment if very ill and need respite etc they have to elderly nursing homes.

Hi Rach,

What a great idea of yours!

How about 'The Smith Family' - they support underprivileged children with educational opportunities and the likes.
Check out their website, if you like: http://www.thesmithfamily.com.au/index.cfm

I'm already supporting this charity btw.

Cheers,
Sonja

Thanks Sonja

I've just added them.

I've actually added all of those listed so far apart from the NSPCC - anyone know what the charity is called in Australia? I cant seem to find the site?

Thanks
