    Also, The Greater Good (vetted charity) is set up to collect monies for threatened animals in the area: https://greatergood.com/clicktogive/ggc/home

    I have been to Maui once and split my time between both sides of the island. It’s really beautiful. I have been to Mexico only by cruising and take the cruise tours. Mexico is too dangerous to go visit so it won’t take the place of Hawaii for many tourists. It has problems that Hawaii doesn’t.

    Anyone that’s been in the military usually hates the Red Cross and won’t give a dime to them especially military personnel that have asked for assistance. I give to the Salvation Army because their salaries are small and the money goes to help people.

    Depending on where you go in MX, it’s fine if you stay in the tourist areas.
