STOP sending me free address labels with the nickel or dime pasted inside!!

I'm getting more and more of the soliciations from charitable organizations that have the pre-printed address labels inside, with a note saying "how can 5 cents save a child's life?"

I am a huge advocate of donating to charitable organizations.  I donate to MANY organizations constantly, at least a dozen or more constantly throughout the year.

But it really upsets me when they send me a nickel stating how 5 cents can save a child's life.

Then why are you sending me 5 cents?!!!!

Use it towards the fund to actually go to the children!!!

Don't use it as a method of guilt or guilt-extortion!!!

That's really low to do in the name of saving children!!!

This form of marketing should be stopped.  It's absolutely awful, and makes NO sense whatsoever to me.
