[AX/AXNY] SPJA Charity Auction candidates selected
Mike Tatsugawa
cause to donate the proceeds of the SPJA 9/11 Charity Auction. We have
narrowed down the candidates to a select eight. We have cleared these
organizations with the Better Business Bureau to insure their status as
a legitimate aid organization for the victims of 9/11. Because I'm not
a local from the New York area, any comments on these charities is
extremely welcome while we talk to these organizations to get it down to
one or two recipients.
