USA Best Credit Report

Just like we have for the past several years (check out last year’s entry for more details on what we do), my family recently completed our annual selections in the Samaritan’s Purse Gift Catalog. In all we contributed to 17 of their 48 options including the following highlights:

• Hot meals (option #1)
• Teach a child to read and write (option #2)
• Clothing and shoes (option #9)
• Help a farm family grow a bountiful crop (option #17)
• Baby chicks (option #22)
• Life-saving medical equipment (option #30)
• Supply a community with clean water (option #36)

I’ve noted recently that the poor of the world have been on my heart. This gift catalog really addresses many basic needs of those so less fortunate. That’s why we love it so much and have been contributors for so many years. Samaritan’s Purse really helps the needy around the world and does so very efficiently — they get the highest rating possible from Charity Navigator. I recommend them highly if you are thinking of making a similar donation any time soon.

BTW, for those of you who don’t know, all the proceeds from Free Money Finance are given away to charity. Every single penny from the beginning of this blog almost five years ago has gone to charity. Two years ago we topped $100k given and I’ll bet we’re now close to $200k. Anyway, I’ll give you an update in January like I do every year, but for now I just want to say how much I appreciate you being part of this website. It’s because you read and visit the site that it generates anything at all — and those are the proceeds that go to help hurting people all over the world! Thanks for being part of the giving team!!!!!
