These are great causes that already have their own websites. Contact me if you would like your charity considered for this site.

	DePelchin Children's Center provides services to children in need.
	Open Heart Kitchen takes pride in serving delicious meals to anyone in need. They make a special point to not ask questions of guests -- all are welcome. Guests can eat as much as they need or take home meals.
	The Westview School is specifically designed for young children with learning differences which prevent them from being successful in regular programs. The program is unique in its ability to meet the needs of high-functioning children with autism. Research has shown that early intervention is the key to engage these children with the world, with other people and to fully develop their capabilities. These studies are borne out by the successful experiences of Westview School graduates, about 50 percent of who enter mainstream classes.
