Hey everyone,

I don't have much cash to throw around but there are organizations that I want to support financially. So, I decided to leverage my 50th birthday and my network of friends to create a fundraiser through an organization called PlanG (short for planned giving).

For my birthday, I am asking friends/family not to buy gifts, but instead to donate to a tax-deductible fund (they get the tax deduction, so it's a gift that gives back) and I get to select the charitable organization(s) that will receive the money.
