Good well

Instead of bitching and not doing anything, I decided to raise $1,000.00 by the end of this semester for the victims of religious strife in Egypt. If successful I'll increase the amount by another $4,000.00, to my ultimate goal of $5,000.00.

Does anyone know of any good charities other than the Coptic Orthodox church that is secular in thought, and whose goals is national unity? I want a charity that will help both Copts and Muslims. I should be in Egypt for the whole summer, so hit me up with suggestions.

I've raised $11.85 on campus...I have some work to do.

Good for you man!!!

That is excellent!

One suggestion I have would be "Coptic Orphans"

It's a wonderful organization and I know that they help Muslim orphans as well.

Here's the link.

I was also going to suggest Coptic Orphans and I know them to be a reputable charity.
