There are many charities that I have been involved with and many I've wanted to dedicate more time and resources to. I am listing some of them here. I think, as responsible human beings, we need to dedicate ourselves to helping others. Those who dedicate a portion of their time and resources to causes are truly spiritual people and are in tune with this precious life we are blessed with. Helping others is a sure way to making the world a better place.
...many blessings to you for helping others! RC

Bound Angels
The charity I founded to heighten awareness for abandoned animals.
Please visit Bound Angels and see how you can make a difference.

Children of the Night
My friend Dr. Lois Lee works with children who are rejected by others. She
counsels them, rehabilitates them, and really cares. Children in the streets
need love and Children of the Night helps them.

Guiding Eyes for the Blind
My grandma was blind, and every day I am thankful for my sight. By providing blind
people with seeing eye dogs (free of charge) this great organization brightens up a
blind persons, otherwise dark life.

Petfinder.com
Have a heart, adopt a homeless pet. It will change your life. These little guys have so much love to give and will be totally loyal to you. If I had the space, I'd take them all. This is a worthwhile cause!

The Arthritis Foundation
Having seen my mom suffer with arthritis since I was a little boy, I've always hoped
that someday there would be a cure for this terrible crippler. It can only be done with
more research and dedication.

National Alliance to End Homelessness
If you've ever talked to a home-less person, you may come to find out that they are real
people, like you and me. They just may have fallen on bad times or unlucky situations.
Ignoring them or shunning them, is shunning a part of yourself.

GreenPeace
These guys are true warriors, I dig what they do. preserving the world for future
generations and challenging the big boys. A group right after my own heart. You guys rock!!

Special Olympics
Giving hope to kids who many think have no hope. This is such a great
organization that develops self esteem in special children.

Museum of Tolerance
If you have the time visit the musem at:
9786 West Pico Blvd in Los Angeles

The Kidney Foundation
Thousands of people die each year because of the lack of organ and tissue donors. A
sure way to live on after you pass from this earth is to donate.

Shambala
Tippi Hedren's preserve is home to many rescued tigers and lions plus a wealth of
other animals. They are cared for in a natural environment, and are able to enjoy
the remainder of their lives. I love animals, and this is a very cool cause.

Save the Music
VH1 donates resources so inner city kids can have musical instruments. There is
so much talent that can be harnessed, if we are generous enough to help.

Fulfillment Fund
Providing nearly 3000 economically disadvantaged students with resources,
tools, and skills needed to obtain quality educations and lead productive, fulfilling lives.
Kids are our future, remember that!

Wildlife Waystation
I've visited the Way Station on several occasions, and brought them sick or injured animals.
The folks there are always cool and willing to help. Animals are so often seen as disposable.
Animals are not disposable!
