Nice to see some common sense from a United Way chapter.

Boy Scouts is a great thing to be a part of. I was one when I was younger and some of my best memories come from summer camp and bass fishing trips. I encourage all fathers to try to get thier sons involved with the scouts.

Send money to the ones you like directly.
Do not let the United Way skim the money.
If you support the good ones but send money through the UW, they will just put less money to the ones you like and give others money to the bad ones.

This is a good start.

However, I will continue to withhold United Way contributions until the entire organization follows suit. Instead my contributions have been going to my church, which suports the community without bending to the homosexual agenda.

I have refused to donate to United Way since I learned their CEO makes over half a million a year. I don't trust any charitable organization with an employee making that much from the monies people donate. I'll stick with the Church, Salvation army and the many smaller groups who solicit for a specific purpose. (ie. everything from school bake sales to blood drives to walk-a-thons for breast cancer.)

Donate directly to the BSA. The United Way has shown their true colors (bigotry) to the BSA all too often in many areas across the US.

They called me up a few weeks ago and asked me to take a survey. I lit them up!
