What do I do to help the poor? I teach in some of the shittiest neighborhoods in Denver. It's my life. I give to local charity ($) and volunteer in nursing homes.
Your company donates to Habitat for Humanity? Woo-ee. What business doesn't donate to something or the other? When was the last time you got your hands dirty, and how often do you do it? Ah...tax-deductible compassionate conservatism.
oh and PS: I don't make enough money for my charitable contributions (not political or religious) - about 1k/yr - to mean anything. I'm a single mom/teacher/head of household. So, yeah, I believe that, to a degree, we're all responsible for the state of affairs.
*sigh*
Yes I personally am involved. I've been over this already but no one wants to read beyond 1 or 2 posts. Also I don't claim a deduction for it. Not only that I give away thousands of dollars in merchandise without a deduction. Having said that its no more commendable that what you offer. Giving what you can is all that matters.
Ps. I'm originally from Colorado and you do have a lot of poor in Denver as well as pueblo. I lived in woodland park. Loved it.
