Here is a great charity I just learned about.
It is called Snowball Express and they fly children and the surviving parent of fallen Service Members to Dallas for a weekend vacation.

Snowball Express started in early 2006 with a simple idea: Provide hope and new memories to the children of military fallen heroes who have died while on active duty since 9/11.
America should honor and pay tribute to the children of those military fallen heroes who have died while honorably serving since 9/11.
Their mission statement.

I will pass this on to others,
Due to recent scandals, and the tight economy, folks seem to be very careful with charities these days, and struggle looking for good ones.

The sad thing is that there are dozens of worthwhile charities working to truly help people that have taken it on the chin, so to speak, because of con artists and criminals pretending to be a charity, or even a part of a real charity. This looks like one of many worthwhile groups, doing really good work. I'll pass it on.

Chris you are correct. That is why it is up to the person doing the giving to research the charity first. Also the fact being that I am in the Military, my wife and I will look towards those charities supporting us and our families first.
