For several years I've given $ to this charity that uses the donations to purchase books for sick/injured...(hospitalized??) children; but I'm not so sure it's as 'legit' as I'd like to think. A word of warning to those of you who don't want to commit to their 'cause' for the long term; they'll call you every year for as long as you use the phone number at which they reach you. I hope that I'm wrong, and that kids DO benefit from this becauseI've been giving ~ $45 per year for close to ten years.

I just got a call from this company as well. A woman called and asked to talk to (last name). I said that they weren't in right now, she asked when she could call back. I asked who was calling, and she said her name was Alisha, and when she could call back. I asked for the name of the company, and she repeated that her name was Alisha and asked when she could call back. I said, "Ummm...next week?" and she responded with "Next week...okay." and then hung up. It was really weird and I hope I answer the phone the next time she call back, knowing what I now know.

Repeated calls from lady speaking very very poor English. Could not understand her.
