LizI've actually never done that, either. But it should be just like texting any other number … I'm just not sure how you do the payment info. Sorry! I'm sure you could look find links for online donations as well.Thanks!

I have never been able to figure out how to send a text to a number like that! LOL I am so cutting edge on most things, but texting somehow passed me by. Help?

Love the idea of giving. I give annually to the nursing home that took the best care of my late husband. I avoid other donations to make sure I can keep doing this, because the staff's individual and collective acts of kindness during a difficult time still cannot be repaid six years later.

BeverlyGiving up my afternoon Diet Dew is really hard, but I've given up pop altogether before, so I know I can do it. That's what I keep telling myself, anyway. Yuck on the chocolate craving. Probably best not to give that up, lol.Good luck!CatieAll good places to donate. Good for you guys. We usually donate to the food bank and the Salvation Army but can always do more.Thanks, ladies!

I don't know what I could give up. That would take some thought. However, my "pet" donations are to the library, the museum, and the zoo. I use their services often, so I like to send extra money when I can. We also donate to the fire department and to the food bank. Neat post. 😀

I am still trying to figure out what I can give up so I can jump on the bandwagon over at Amber's. Morning Mountain Dew – no, I'm addicted, I can't handle the caffeine headache of instant withdrawal. Chocolate? Not happening. Last week I had such an intense craving it was truly chocolate or killing somebody. I believe I went with the civilized choice.I *could* give up pantyhose… too late, already did.I will think of something, eventually.

Great concept, but these days I'm living on the charity of others. Perhaps in the future when things improve, I'll give something up provided I can just give cash and remain anonymous.Love the animal photo.
