      Charity starts at home! Aren't there millions of American children that are in need? Look after your own people first, and if there is extra money…THEN DONATE!!!

      Thanks for posting charities in so many of your blogs the past few months, Perez! By the way, we should contribute to the flood victims HERE IN THE USA. Even parts of the Mississippi River are now closed!

      I knew there would at least be one racist comment. So what about all of the caucasian charities are they so much better? No mainly every charity is a good charity! And im sure both of the comments ride down the street and there car is bumping rap music!

      First, it's sad to me that someone could post such a naive comment as "t-rex" 's…
      and second, it's interesting to me that so many people comment on things about celebrities, but only 15 comment about people who are in such deep need. It makes me wonder where our countries real heart is at…

      These babies didn't ask to be born. All kids deserve a break, life is tough enough before you're old enough to meet all the racist idiots in the world. and I agree with the last comment, where are our priorities as a country????

      cool…but a christian group. i have a lot more respect for groups that are helping their fellow humans just because they are their fellow humans in need. bottom line/end of story. the last thing the world needs is more missionaries.

      They should be drowned at birth so they wouldn't have to live a life of misery. I know it sounds mean but that's the way it is, Folks. Would you want to live like that? I know I wouldn't. They don't have a chance and are better off dead. Sorry to be so blunt.

      Re: Grett – Who else do you see out helping people besides missionaries? Their out giving up their lives to help people! Stop acting like you know everything. Get off your ass and do something rather than critiquing people who actually attempt to make the world a better place.
