All Community created Funds

I find it important and difficult to decide which charity to donate to, to ensure the most impact rather than how well it is marketed. Givewell.org searches for charities that save or improve lives the most per dollar. Even well-meaning charities can fail to have impact. GiveWell provides evidence-backed analysis of effectiveness. Every quarter they announce top charities based on different criteria and show how they reached the conclusion. This fund has these top charities. It is a good way to be confident that your money is making the most impact it can make.

The benefits of music for the mind, body, and soul are endless, and World Music Day encourages the world to collectively indulge in one of humanity's greatest art forms. The following organizations are working to support the art of music by providing relief to struggling musicians, increasing music education funding in schools, and reaching those who are in need of the healing power of music. Your donation to this Fund will help these organizations meet their shared goal of ensuring that the art of music continues to thrive for years to come.

The Americans with Disabilities (ADA) Act, signed into law on July 26, 1990, prohibits the discrimination of Americans with disabilities. The ADA ensures protections for people with disabilities, both physical and mental, in several spheres including employment, public transportation/public spaces, communications, and government-rendered services and programming, among others. The ADA's ultimate goal is to ensure that people with disabilities are afforded equal opportunities to participate in public life with necessary accommodations and without discrimination based on their disability. The following organizations are doing the critical work to ensure that the protections afforded by the ADA are upheld, and that those who have faced unlawful discrimination based on their disability have access to support and resources. Additionally, these organizations are advocating for additional protections for those with disabilities under the ADA as needed, increasing public visibility of those with disabilities, and promoting inclusive and accessible spaces. Your donation to this Fund, in honor of the ADA's signing anniversary, will help each of these organizations work towards their shared mission of creating equitable, accessible, and welcoming communities for all.

Poaching has become a significant issue in recent years and is threatening the existence of many species, including the rhinoceros. The world has lost over 60 % of its rhino population to poaching in the last seven years. The rhino horn is in high demand in many countries and is believed to have medicinal properties. This demand has led to a considerable increase in rhinos being killed illegally. This fund is dedicated to fighting poaching and saving the rhino from extinction. Your donation supports anti-poaching efforts and conservation programs for rhinos. The program includes habitat protection, public awareness campaigns, and deploying highly trained anti-poaching units.

https://cota.org/campaigns/COTAforAxelwithLove Please help my nephew with anything you can. His story told by his mother below: Axel started off like any other child. He was happy, healthy, strong, and mischievous. He loved chasing his older brothers and sneaking treats to the family dog. Shortly after his first birthday he started getting sick. There was no rhyme or reason for it. He got sick back-to-back and began to struggle. When cancer was the leading prognosis, his doctors pushed for Axel to get more lab work ASAP. That push led him to the emergency room, which saved his life. It was ultimately discovered that he did not have cancer but instead was in full heart failure. After every level of testing, the cause is still unknown. He was fading fast and his best hope was being transported to Stanford Children’s Hospital. Axel held on long enough to be placed from the gurney to his hospital bed where his vitals plummeted. Emergency procedures were used to save his life that night. His parents could only watch in horror as the medical teams tried their best. His parents remember optimistically, yet naively, asking, “there’s still a chance his heart will just heal itself, right?” There was a pause and a very soft, but firm response. “Axel is critically ill. A part of his heart has died. He needs a transplant. Axel needs a new heart.” Since then, teams of doctors and machines have been used to keep him going. Axel is recovering on a Ventricular Assist Device (VAD). He is hooked up to machines that keep him alive and he cannot leave the hospital until after transplant. Axel's parents take turns being with him at the hospital and being home with his brothers. The need to be present with Axel has caused the family to be reduced to one income. For Axel and his family, this is a difficult marathon. With medical bills and expenses beginning to pile on, the family is seeking help from COTA to keep their family strong and help relieve some of the financial stress as they move through this journey together. The Children's Organ Transplant Association (COTA) helps children and young adults who need a life-saving transplant by providing fundraising assistance and family support. COTA is the nation’s only fundraising organization solely dedicated to raising life-saving dollars in honor of transplant-needy children and young adults. 100% of each contribution made to COTA in honor of our patients helps meet transplant-related expenses. COTA’s services are free to our families, and gifts to COTA are tax deductible to the fullest extent of the law.

May is Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) Awareness Month. Many of you may remember the Ice Bucket Challenge from the videos of people dumping ice water over their heads to promote awareness of ALS and encourage donations to research. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig's disease, is a progressive nervous system disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord, causing muscle weakness and eventually leading to paralysis. Living with ALS can be a complicated and overwhelming experience, but thankfully, many support services are available to help individuals and their families cope with the disease. By donating to ALS support services, you can help improve the lives of those living with ALS and provide a sense of hope and support for their loved ones. Medication and therapy can slow ALS and reduce discomfort, but there's no cure. Your donation can make a difference in the lives of those living with ALS and help fund research to find a cure for this devastating disease.
