Welcome and have a fun stay.

Oh and charity with strings attached is not charity but exploitation, so though you may not participate yourself, try to donate to organizations who won't use your kindness to exploit the needy.

Thanks! Interesting perspective on charity, never thought of it from that angle.

Indeed. If churches were actual charities, they'd prove their charitable status the way any other organisation does, and be prepared to open their books.
