Ask HN: What is your favorite charity?

I donate mostly to EFF, but should donate to more.

The American Lung Association, because my wife once had a severe lung infection.

I personally donated to worldvision.com

The Ayn Rand Institute

Doctors Without Borders

But only because a friend of mine is a volunteer. To be honest, he pestered me about it for years but I didn't actually donate until he came back from Israel and told me about how he and some other Western doctors had almost been accidentally shot by Israeli troops while taking care of some wounded Palestinians. Of course he probably made the whole thing up, since that could never happen.

With tax time around the corner, be reminded that a donation is tax-deductible:
