...any expense ourselves, so go do this.

Sure it's slacktivism, but it's marginally better than doing nothing.

You have now donated
2000 grains of rice.

Going for 10k tonight, just for fun.

Edit: Got to 4000 and then it threw an error and lost it. Guess somebody's not eating due to their code :P

Nope - i give to charity and i like it
no matter the expenses. I like helping
others if i can and i do. Its just money,
theres alot of other more important
things in life. I cant take it with me
when i snuff it so theres no need
to hoard, better to try and do some
good for others with it.

I wasn't saying it was an either-or, doing both is of course entirely noble.
