This week charities received some press time when it was revealed that Leona Helmsley left a whole lot of money for her dog, Trouble, and charities that take care of dogs. Out of the billions of dollars that Leona left behind…most of it will go to charitable organizations. That got me to thinking, while animals are important; and, organizations that work towards protecting them and providing them with care are wonderful…hopefully, some of that money could be used towards charities that do the same types of services for human beings.
There really are some great organizations and non-profits out there who really try to make a difference. I love it when someone creates one when their hearts and minds get touched by an experience in their lives or the lives of someone that they care about.
