I was reading about the Kansas City Secret Santa today and thought how much fun that would be. It made me start thinking what I would do if I had 40k to spare. So here are some questions.

1. If you had unlimited amounts of money, what type of Random Acts of Kindness would you do? At Christmas or otherwise.

2.

Same thing at our house. My mom sends us money to get the kids gifts from her and "Santa" leaves them at our house that morning too.

The drivers are NOT paid by the charity. They are paid by the company that buys the load from them (at least IME).

Oh my....don't you ever give this up? You should extend yourself more around where you live. I DON'T think they only have illegal housing in ONE area of the nation. BAER.

Yeah, or not allowed to take AMERICAN jobs when they are NOT American.

Would you like YOUR dd to be ogled by these men while she is trying to go to a local store?

lol!! Maybe you are unaware that these people (who can afford other places to buy clothes) buy these clothes and then resell them on ebay, craigslist and their own garage sales. I know people who do this (NO, not me. I don't have the time and patience to do this).

Nope, the charity does not go through these things (at least IME). The company they sell to does and they don't separate the good from the bad, it all goes to be made into rags.

Where was this truck driver that he COULD have been illegal and been hired by a company?

Have YOU ever worked with or for a non-profit charity organization?
