Both my wife and I have donated for years to the HSUS and specifically to its efforts in bettering the controls in factory farming. We have supported several of the organizations efforts toward education and legislative change. The effort we feel most dear to is their undercover investigations at meat processing facilities. We believe they have very rightfully earned our financial support and feel it is a worth while charity. Many who have written bad reviews of the organization simply are not educated to the reality that they are a more legislative/education society vs. a more hands on society such as the ASPCA. There is a distinct difference. Both types of organizations are justified and useful. the HSUS is more the former than the latter. The donator simply needs to do there homework and distribute their donations across the two types of organizations. In conclusion, we find the HSUS a worthy charity and will continue to support it.

Based on both my wife and my research as medical professionals with regards to the reputation of this organization, we have found from our work that they are a genuine honest organization. Their efforts are to support legislative and informational activities towards the complete elimination of animals in medical research. This is a very good cause and as medical researchers we share their vision. We have donated to them for the last few years and will continue to do so. We recommend them to fellow medical researchers/doctors.

We have donated to the ASPCA for years and watched directly their activities to help both shelters and animals as well as provide general education. When compared to many of the legislative type education societies vs. actual working with the animals directly, I have found the ASPCA is living up to its reputation of helping animals. I would only advise the donator that their is a distinct difference between legislative/education efforts and actual hands on organizations. BOTH are valuable and BOTH are necessary. This particular organization is more hands-on. The HSUS for example is more the former. I highly recommend the ASPCA as your first entry choice in donating to causes for animals. The second one would be the Humane Society of the US for more pure legislative type work. ASPCA clearly distinguishes itself as a more hands on effort. Well worth the donation!

My wife and I have utilized Tony Robbins products for years and donated his products to local libraries, etc. Having been impressed with his products and philosophy and training methods, we decided to support his foundation to help children. Based on information from several individuals who we encouraged to send their children to his leadership camp, we have found it was very well received and very productive. Additionally, we were exceptionally impressed by the foundations "basket brigade" effort to feed needy families during the holidays. I would highly recommend his foundation as a worth while and productive charity.

My wife and I have donated to the Bunny Bunch SPCR for over 4 years not and have found it to be a highly effective and worth while charity for helping exotic animals. Their teams of volunteers are highly dedicated and work exceptionally hard. Have met the owner and several board members. They are exceptionally frugal with the donations and spend virtually every penny on animal medical bills and shelter care. I would highly recommend this charity for anyone who cares for exotic small animals such as Rabbits, G. Pigs, etc.
