As it is Baby Loss Awareness Week (Oct 9-15), it led me to think about causes specific to children.

1. **Rays of Sunshine** is a national charity that brightens the lives of seriously ill young people by granting wishes and providing ongoing support in hospital and within the community  
[Donate – Rays of Sunshine](https://raysofsunshine.org.uk/donate/)

2. **Plan International UK** is a global children’s charity and works with girls and boys growing up in some of the world’s poorest communities, making sure they have access to the education, health care, clean water and future opportunities they need to thrive.

I’m going to push to support Fred Clark and his blog Slactivist. His wife recently had a bout of COVID. She’s better now, but they could use some extra money.

Blog post is here. They have a Paypal link for donations.
