Sylum Charity: LGBT Center
Don’t necessarily have to donate this particular center.
But would recommend finding local LGBT Center or Charity.
Marginalized communities are being hit hard, and need all the support they can get.

Sylum Charity: Food Banks
Food Banks.
I’m not listing a specific one, as we all know of the ones in our specific areas.
Please donate what you can to a Food Bank.
There are millions of people who are food insecure – let’s make sure they can put food on the table.
If don’t have a good Food Bank near you, look for organizations that help feed the hungry.
For example: No Kid Hungry, World Center Kitchen, and many others.
Sylum Charity: BCRF

Sylum Charity: No Kid Hungry
At No Kid Hungry, that’s our promise. If it sounds simple, that’s because it is.
That doesn’t mean ending childhood hunger is easy. We know what works, and we’ve made extraordinary progress for kids and families.
But the job isn’t done, and won’t be done until we’ve met that promise and every single child in America has the food they need to grow up healthy and strong.
Information: No Kid Hungry
This is one of the charities I donate to monthly. No one should go hungry, and kids are especially vulnerable.

While we’re talking about the Ocean and Whales – favorite whale?
For me – that’s hard. Love Humpback whales, the Ocra’s are awesome, and Blue Whale’s are magnificient.
War On Poverty – Sylum Charity
For this month’s charity – I’m besearching those to donate to a local Food Bank.
Food Poverty is more of a problem than many like to state, and though there is not much we can do to leviate the major problems, we can help to make sure that people get the food they need.
Please check out your local Food Bank to donate – I have volunteered for our local one and was amazed at how much they can help with just a few dollars – $1 equals 4 meals.
It’s one of the charities I actually send a monthly contribution to, though lucky to not need the help of a food bank, I know so many do.
Sylum Charity: Breast Cancer Research Foundation
October was Breast Cancer Awarness Month I had picked another charity for that month for personal reasons.
So this month we’re showcasing BCRF. For the hope and continued research to find the cure for cancer.
