The Wife and I have settled on three charities to give to on a regular basis. In selecting these charities, a lot of effort went into determining who won't squander our charitable donations.

* +KhanAcademy

Education is a very important thing to The Wife and I, and we have both made extensive use of Khan Academy. If an individual wants to become educated, this is a resource that is open to anyone, all you require is the desire and the will.

* 10,000 Carrots Rabbit Rescue
* Ferret Lovers Society of Atlantic Canada- Rescue

We can't keep animals anymore (just not interested in all the work), but certainly would love to make some animal's life better. In memory of our pets (Chimutisk and Stew), we have decided to make regular contributions to the local (species appropriate) animal rescues.

(For the record, we don't receive any tax breaks for these donations. It is OK to give to a charity without goverment approval)
