Hi, all,
I am trying to start to gather some ideas regarding how to make a (hopefully) sizeable donation to a local non-profit organization in the next few months. Here's the deal...
I am expecting bebé number 2 in a few months. It has been a personally, mentally, physically, and emotionally challenging experience thus far. However, I still have to acknowledge that all in all, my family and I are among the fortunate minority here (especially in complicated and uncertain times like these) - in the end, we know that we will all be fine and the new addition will want for nothing in the future. This is clearly not the case for a lot of people in Buenos Aires.
As I start to plan a baby shower this summer, I was thinking that, in lieu of gifts, our friends can somehow donate money to a cause that ideally specifically helps babies and/or children in Argentina. The thing is, I really have no clue how to go about it.
My main inquiry for now is what might be some reputable organizations that help local families with babies or small kids, as well as the logistics (i.e. - If a bank transfer is feasible, if it can be several small ones or one big one in the end, and so on).
Does anyone have any ideas to help get me started? Thanks in advance!
