Donations to Fire and Police
I have found over the years that what these previous posters have posted is true, so I have adopted a very simple, very direct way of supporting local emergency services. I go to the local station, give them an envelope with cash in it, and say to them that I want to help their relief program, then they can do whatever they want with the money. Regardless of what they actually do with it, I know that 100% went to the emergency services, and none of it went to a middle agency not helping the local effort.
