I usually donate once or twice a year to my favorite charities. However, once you get on their list, they bombard you with repeated requests. Some charities send requests out 2-3 times a month. I don’t know anyone who donates to a charity 25-30 times a year. Because of this wasteful solicitation, I have actually cut back on some charities figuring that if they have that much money for solicitation, they must be doing pretty well!!
