I live in Memphis, TN, home to the St Jude's Children's Research hospital. This is one of the greatest charities one can donate to. I have several friends who work at St Jude's and can tell you there is so much pain and suffering these kids and their families endure.
When life is stressful and things aren't going my way, I only need to remember how blessed I am to have four healthy kids. My problems pale in comparison to what these folks live with. Puts things in perspective real quick!
Awesome show of generosity here on this site. Donaters and bidders really outdid themselves this year. Great job and thanks to Doug and those behind the scenes who make this happen each year!
