Quoting You
Aging hippies and childish idealists. All capitalist free markets are driven by greed and corruption and characterized by a tiny minority holding disproportionate wealth. It’s also the only model known to work consistently. Tax the rich, put down regulations, sure. But there’s no way around the nature of the system itself. The only viable route is not to loathe the rich, but try to outcompete them. (xian)Recent Comments

Another great charity I would recommend is Tzu Chi.
They have helped people all over the world and don’t try to preach or convert. A lot of the local chapters are self-sustaining via environmental/recycling programs and when going to disaster areas, volunteers even pay for their own way.
They are also the first overseas NGO allowed into China

and they are also recognized by the UN.
@JJ
Agreed. Thanks. Added Tzu Chi to charities page and links section.
@DeWang
