We do either or. We usually do $25 per transaction to Childrens Miracle Network as a company.
There was an agent that I heard of that would pay for the adoption fees for people that couldn't afford it at an animal shelter near her. Our fees here are around $300 & I think she helped 100 families which I was impressed with.
The village has a fund called Neighbors helping Neighbors which helps people thruout the year when they get in a jam. They pay their water, electric or other bills when a true emergency comes up. Case worker determines need & pays bill directly on their behalf.

Christine, we do our donations to specific groups for specific reasons. We do advertise that we donate and who to. We do not do a per transaction donation. All organizations are heavily vetted and we will NEVER, EVER donate to the united way. The united way takes 70% of all donations as overhead expenses. We use "Guidestar" (a free service) to review the annual filings of the organizations we donate to to make sure our money actually goes to the charity.

We do a donation amount per transaction, through our company's Care Foundation. It covers many, many charities, all local to Tucson. And how exciting is it to receive a letter saying that a donation has been made in your name, to different charities. This is our Foundation's 10th Year Christine Kankowski North SD and Temecula. "More than 2 million dollars in support has been donated to over 170 different non-profit organizations in the communities where we live and work."

Several donations to natural disaster. A friend is serving on local Red Cross.
Brokerage has programs to cook for the poor etc.
I do not like annual fixed amount as I want to take control as some chartiies I want to change each year. Some realtors stated they gave 10% of commission to charity. I operate differently. Homeless is a big local problem.

We give regularly to our local church, private missionaries, a pregnancy resource center, a Christian youth ministry, and for the education of some children in impoverished parts of the world. The best use of your money is with a small charity or specific missionary. Large organizations lose sight of their mission and start spending more on administration and marketing than they do actually helping people in need.
