By making donations to various charities or a charity of your choice you give hope. There are many institutions that rely on public donations which are not only supporting humans but also animals. For instance the cancer institute which is situated worldwide are dedicated to ultimately finding a cure for childhood cancer as well as improving treatments. The cancer institutes strive towards a vision to save the lives of children around the world suffering from one or other form of cancer and to help eliminate their suffering. Australia for instance has one of the finest and world leading cancer research centres known as the Lowy Cancer Research Centre.

There has been a notable increase in cancer both in children and adults over the past decade. This has obviously put a strain on funding and resources worldwide and especially in third world countries where medications and care are not that readily available.  International charities such as the cancer association are well worth charities to make donations to. These charities are registered which means your donations are tax deductible. Making donations to such charities could save a child’s life or make them comfortable till the end. If humans are not where you want to put your money then how about threatened animal species.

There are millions of animals around the world that are facing extinction either due to climate change or poaching. Each country has unique indigenous fauna and flora that are found nowhere else. Tragically many are facing the extinction due to infectious diseases, habitat loss, climate change and fires. These animals could be lost forever, unless people start acting to save them. Many rehabilitation centres and zoos around the world are fully committed to restoring viable populations through captive breeding programs and reintroduction.

Millions of dollars are spent annually on education programs to raise public awareness and to support recovery teams addressing threatening processes. Animals that are in the limelight are the rhino, elephant, bush tailed rock wallaby, the koala bears, thousands of bird species of which the list is endless. One can donate to these organizations which in turn will allow them to carry on with breeding programs and delivering education for future generations.

Not only are their animal species that are critically endangered but also forest and eco systems are being destroyed due to destruction and greed. Every living organism plays a role in the eco system and if one suddenly becomes extinct it will have dire consequences on the planet. One can either donate money, property or their services to any of these worthy charities locally or internationally. Leave a footprint and make a difference for the future.
