Hi Michael,
Thanks for the kind words. I was suggested to talk about this topic.
There are thousands of donation causes. As a financial guy, I tried to include the causes that Nobel Laureate economists estimate should have the biggest benefit for humanity per dollar donated.

Thanks Ed for the Donation/Giving Video! I thought it was excellent both in understanding the nuances of tax planning, and also where one might provide the most benefit with their donations to help make the world a better place for more people.
