I really want to thank everybody who donated $1 to play quizzo this week. We raised $248!!! A number of people questioned whether or not the UN was the best choice to send the money, due to high cost of administration and questions after Annan’s son’s “Oil for Food” scandal. I did some more homework, and found a charity that I think will make better use of our money. It’s called Action Against Hunger, it received an “A” grade from the American Institute of Philanthropy, and over 90 cents of every dollar goes directly to its programs. Thanks again for your generosity, and I hope you won’t mind if we make the “Dollar Week” an occasional part of quizzo. There are a number of great local charities I think it would be kool to help out as well. As far as the “Is this money REALLY going for charity, Johnny?” question I received, oh, I’d say 248 times this past week, I’d just like to say this: First of all, thanks for having so much faith in my morality. Really, I’m touched. Also, YES, 100% of the money raised is going to charity.
