It's Giving Tuesday today! Are you making a donation to a charity?

Who are you donating to?
Also, if you are unsure of who to donate to, I suggest the Hydrocephalus Association. That money will go to hydrocephalus research, which is an underfunded field. 1 or 2 in every 1000 babies in the US are born with hydrocephalus, and the only treatment is a lifetime with a brain shunt (a giant tube from the brain to the abdomen).
But if you already made a donation elsewhere, that's cool too! :)

On Giving Tuesday, all donations sent in are doubled. This extra money to double the donations comes from big corporations and billionaires, like Bill Gates. And I agree that there are plenty of opportunities to help, but so many people have just enough money for their necessities and many people do not have time to volunteer, so they prefer to donate when they know their donation can be doubled.
