Is Your Spouse Cheating?







    Under closer examination the "pollution free"
 hydrogen power car mentioned in President Bush's 
January 2003 State of the Union Address will only 
perpetuate dependence on fossils fuels and
 possibly increase global warming as a result.

    Unfortunately there are some people who use 
charities as a scam. Please check out the 
following information, it will hopefully help 
you to be able to tell the difference.







1Ask for written information. A legitimate charity 
will give you information outlining its mission, 
how your donation will be distributed, and proof
 that your contribution is tax deductible.
2Don�t send cash. For security and tax
 record purposes, pay by check. Write
 the official name of the charity on 
your check.


3Ask for identification. Many states
 require paid fund-raisers to 
identify themselves as such and to 
name the charity for which they�re
 soliciting
4Be wary of guaranteed sweepstakes winnings
 in exchange for your contribution. You
 never have to donate to be eligible to 
win.



5Watch out for similar sounding
 names. Some phony charities
 use names that sound or look 
like those of respected, 
legitimate organizations
6Consider the costs. When 
buying merchandise or 
receiving free goods 
for giving, remember
 that these items are 
paid for out of your
 contribution. That 
means less of your 
donation may go to the
 charity.



7Call the charity. Find out if
 the organization is aware of
 the solicitation and has
 authorized the use of its 
name. If not, you may be
 dealing with a sham 
solicitor

8Be cautious of charities that offer to
 send a courier for your donation.




9Be skeptical if someone thanks you
 for a pledge you don�t remember
 making. Check your records if you 
have doubts about a pledge you
 supposedly made.

10Refuse high pressure appeals. Legitimate
 charities won�t push you to give on the 
spot.
