help-full?

I want to buy something from each of those sites, The Hunger Site, the Rainforest Site, the Breast Cancer Site, the Child Health Site, and the Animal Rescue Site. But I don’t have that much money. Actually, it doesn’t really matter how much cash I have, ’cause it’d all be coming out of my bank account (except if I spend too much from there I have to put money back in), but then I’d have to use Daddy’s credit card, and there’re too many charges on that card right now, so I can’t really use it for too much.

I was wondering, also, if a form letter sent to support some cause works at all. I mean … yeah, it helps in that it lets whomever I’m sending it to aware that I support this cause, but then … I don’t know, maybe it helps a little less because, after they get so many, they know it’s just a form letter, and people didn’t care enough to write their own letter? I dunno, I just had that weird thought. ^^;

Planet-Save.com was linking to this thing where you fill out your name and address and they send a letter to … whomever (senate person or congress person, I think), about … I forget what it was. Oh, allowed annual mercury levels from factories, or something. I really wanted to do it, ’cause they said in the privacy statement they would use my information only in the letter, and save it for later purposes, but they wouldn’t give the info out or anything. And it’s better than the online petitions that say they’d give out info to … partner sites, or something. Daddy won’t let me sign those. :(
