Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

The real problem is needing these donations at all. These kind of things should be government funded for at least 90% if shit worked correct.
Completely agree, charity is a symptom of something wrong in a society. If something needs support and is worthwhile (and you assume charities are for worthwhile causes), why as a society is it not being done?
If you look at a lot of charities throughout history, it's almost like they're really there for the powerful to play with their pets ..
That's fair, I'm certainly not addressing that.
The comic was about the charity/corporation/individual interaction and I'm just talking about the fact that given the situation they're in, charities rely on donations in this form.
