Are there better places to donate to than these bail funds? I’m worried that bail will be paid to people who actually committed crimes. This probably won’t be a popular opinion so apologies in advance

I 💯 would not donate to bail funds. Too many people committing crimes.

Think outside the box on helping the problem. Maybe donate to a local boys and girls club in your area. The more we help children we can fix/help generations to come.

Hey OP, just wanted to say thank you for being altruistic and wanting to donate and help communities and POC, while I may not agree with your thoughts, the fact you’re actually doing SOMETHING, is the most important part, sorry that others are attacking you when you’re trying to help.

Eh @G1 Im not sure I agree with that. If you see tons of your friends and family donating to various funds might you also be inspired to do the same?

I’m curious if it’s just my company or if every sophisticated accounting department will have non traditional ways of posting their journal entries.

My professional life at the moment is far from ideal. I’ve been on quarantine (long story, but a good one) for the last seven years. Royalties from my books don’t pay the bills.

I have a social media presence which, in recent years, reached millions. There has to be something exciting I can do.
