[QUOTE="New Englander, post: 357492, member: 15249"] Tie are you forgetting something? UPS matches our contribution to the United Way. Do they care so little that they will not match my contribution to a local charity? It's not like they are giving anymore then usual as the United Way will not be getting my $260 this coming year. All I'm asking is that my money and the matching amount go somewhere absolutely local, all of it. I'd rather see the entire $520 go to buying groceries to the local food kitchen that I will help stock the shelves, prepare and serve the food then go to The United Way. Or directly into a LOCAL fuel assistance program. Preferably to families with children. It's not about trying to create obstacles. It's my money, I work hard it. I'd feel better about giving if I felt I had more control of it and I felt it was really helping. When you donate to The United Way you don't get that sense of really feeling like your helping. It's way too large of an operation for me. [/QUOTE]
