I like being able to donate my comedy to charity. I'm not a billionaire, and I can't write checks.
You may have heard of Black Friday and Cyber Monday. There's another day you might want to know about: Giving Tuesday. The idea is pretty straightforward. On the Tuesday after Thanksgiving, shoppers take a break from their gift-buying and donate what they can to charity.
Americans are known for their strength, fortitude, and generosity in times of need. We encourage people in the U.S. and everywhere to give with their hearts, reach out to these victims, and donate what they can to the relief efforts.
I encourage my fans to get involved, whether it's just educating yourself on premature birth, or you can donate or volunteer.
Asking people for money is really different than asking people for their support.
If I've learned anything in the more than 50 years that I've led MDA, it's that the generosity of the American people knows no bounds. I'm sure that with their fellow citizens in such dire need, they'll dig deep and do everything they can to help. I'm hopeful that many people will be willing to make two phone calls and donate to both causes.
You must never throw away things that are worth good money.

Give now. Somewhere, someone feels crappy. You can help.
I always learned to be philanthropic... to give back.
I take a part of my monthly earnings, and I donate it to my foundation. And this is to distribute hot meals, distribute gifts to children. We help by giving clothing and shoes to people that don't have the resources.

When you check out at PetSmart, the cashier usually asks you if you want to donate money to PetSmart charities to help save the animals. Usually, we're so busy we don't even pay attention.
As nice as it is to make an appearance at an event, I don't find that the most fulfilling way to support an organization.
We want to use our site to galvanize people to give but also to take important steps toward real change.
For people who don't know, the fundraiser works like this: people donate to Worldbuilders and they're automatically entered to win geeky swag in the lottery. We're just starting week two and we're already giving away more than $40,000 of books and games.
We've gotta stand up against hate. If you're able to give money, give to Black Lives Matter. If you're able to protest, protest. If you're able to volunteer, volunteer.
Do you know what the actual percentage of money the Clinton Foundation has raised that they donate so far to charity is? It's like 5%. Five percent of what they have collected they have donated - and of course, nobody reports that, either.
There are lots of issues more important than where billionaires donate their money.
