Has anyone tried this?
I'd love to hear your experiences.
I joined a site last week - and sent lots of donations to several people.
I sent a fellah some money for his teeth, I sent some twins some money so they could save to move away from an abusive father, I sent some money to a fellah whose dog had walked off the roof to help him pay for his vet bills, I sent some money to some drought stricken farmers to buy hay for their horses. What else. It was fun - and I considered it an honourable thing to do.
I reckon we should all tithe at least 5% of our income this way.
Thanks for listening and responding,
Jaahda :-)

Hiya Jaahda,
No I have never tried this although I do agree that to share your money around certainly helps you karmically and that it would be a better world all around if more people were prepared to share what little they had.
Having said that, I must admit that I am a very suspicious person and would find it hard to be able to put faith in any site on the internet that claimed to do this. Maybe if someone I knew had proof of being paid from such a site I would be more believing. Its just that there are soo soo many internet scams out there :(
I hope these sites work out for you, but even if they dont, I think the intent to help people is there in you and sometimes all that is needed to bring good things about in your life is intent.
Tanika.
