Charities
I am an officer in a charitable organization called "Jacob's Ladder". My task is to find individuals or organizations that need help. For example, last year we gave thousands of dollars to Catholic Charities in Central California. The process involves me identifying the needful entity and then asking them to apply for the aid. Jacob's Ladder most of the time weighs my recommendation heavily. If you have a pressing need, perhaps a handicapped relative whom you support, or you have a serious medical condition that can be treated so that you can live a full life, then please write a letter describing your need to Jacob's Ladder, and mail it to them at PO Box 31034, Santa Barbara, CA 93130. If you apply, you agree to accept their decision as to your eligibility to receive aid and to the amount of aid they decide to give as final.
