Looking back on 2006 – before posting the lists of best tv shows, best cd’s, etc., I wanted to make a list of charities that deserved my money this year.
Taking care of animals and the environment:
Defenders of Wildlife 
Elephant Sanctuary 
Fund For Animals 
Greenpeace 
Humane Society of the United States 
Illinois Prairie Path 
Jane Goodall Institute 
Tiger Haven 
Wildlife Land Trust 
Taking care of cats and dogs:
Two of our cats came from The Animal Care League. 
My brother’s cats came from The Anti-Cruelty Society. 
Merry Christmas to Sister Marijon at Cats-Are-Purrsons-Too and Touched By an Animal. 
Birds:
Cornell Birds 
Hoping to visit the International Crane Foundation in 2007.

The universe:
I’ve been a member for years, just wish I could make time to visit The Adler Planetarium more often.
And I wish we could get to visit the Lowell Observatory in 2007.
