Tyler's Wishlist- Support the Homeless

Charitable wish lists and registries show what we are passionate about.
Create or edit your own here!

A friend of mine made a wish-list on here for his birthday and I thought it was super-cool, so I figured I'd do the same. I'm supporting homelessness causes as I feel that the homeless get ignored by most people so they could really use the help. I can't imagine how difficult it must be for them, especially in winter months when its cold out. Helping me support this cause would really mean a lot to me so thank you. It makes me feel good in a way that a normal gift could never do, and I'm really excited to hear how many people I managed to help.

I'd really like it if I could donate for my friends too, instead of giving them something they don't want! Please create your own wish-list so that I can support a cause that you are really passionate about- they have so many that you're sure to find one. Plus, even if a gift isn't listed you can support any non-profit, so you can back your favourite regardless!
