If you were to start a charity, what will its mission be?

It would promote freedom of thought, speech, and from coercion. Freedom from religion.

It would promote rational thought.

There’s a few things I’ve considered.

I would like to help people get eyeglasses, dental care, and bicycles.

Those are things I’ve had that I am extremely grateful for; things which improved my life a lot, and I feel sad that people can’t get them.

Mine would be to give every pigeon a nappy/diaper, serve the whole community as well as the birds.

@ucme, Who’s going to change them?

@reijinni Ducks would provide changing facilities, free of charge of course, no bill :D

I would start an outreach program for those that have been or are being bullied that would also have a boot camp for bullies.

Helping the victims and the families of victims of pig brutality, while simultaneously prosecuting the guilty pigs, and if necessary, hire professionals to deal with the pigs if the legal system fails.

It would be an animal sanctuary for unwanted animals. Helping, homing, loving.

It would help pay for medical and dental bills for working families.

Nearly 40% of all debts in collections accounts is due to medical bills, and medical bills are the number 1 source of debt in America.

To simply the process and reduce the cost of domestic and international adoption. Also, to advocate for adoption as a more common option for becoming a parent.

Probably something to do with heart disease.

Another idea would be to help
people afford hearing aids. From what I can tell that industry is completely corrupt like a lot if health care.

Lastly, orphan children or children in the system interest me. There are some very good organizations that help kids and a lot if the kids have mental illness or lower IQ’s. I worry also about the really smart ones. That they are stick in a system more geared for the average or even below average intelligence and they don’t get their need for learning, and potential in general, a real chance.

I would operate a business incubator. Having seen at first hand the transformation that can occur in a person who owns and operates her own successful business, I would love to extend that awareness and empowerment among a fleet of small business owners – who may determine on their own that they want to be large business owners. More power to ‘em.

Legal aid for suing universities and schools who put profit over students education. also I would provide king sized bathtubs for taller people with habitat for humanity.

I actually started a charity that is self-funding. It is a 501( c )3, not-for-profit, prostate cancer support group geared to help guys with PCa who can’t afford to attend an annual meeting. We pay for hotels, and travel expenses for guys who need it and are working on a short time horizon. Those meetings have changed and saved lives.
We are one of the charities supported by amazon’s smile program.

We already run a charity here, an animal rescue charity. Blind donkey, geriatric donkey, crippled and blind goose, crippled duck, we should rename the ranch from ” Twelve Trees” to the “Crippled Goose.” lol
I also would love to have a communal home for Boomers gone bust like me this past few years
Single/divorced people in their 50’s and 60’s that can’t make it alone in this economy anymore, like me.

This house is perfect, huge communal kitchen, sprawling 1,200 sq. foot porch, plenty of room to sit in our rockers and drink wine and be retired with a great view. lol
Share the chores, cooking, cleaning, and forget about our cares.
Middle aged and senior people living communally is the wave of the future given this economic climate.

My colleague and I are actually in the process of starting an animal rescue charity. The aim is to find long term homes or foster homes for animals in need.

Does helping develop psychology in China count?
