    I want to help poor kids in Mexico

    I live 40 miles fromthe U.S./Mexican border and I know for sure that the poor kids here in the USA are rich compared to the kids in Mexico. I want to give them some button-up shirts that didnt fit my cousins. Any links to places where I can do this?

    Drive to the border and give them away!!!

    California is helping plenty of Mexican poor kids in America by not deporting them.

    Call your charity. Find out what they normally do.

    ummm that was kinda mean..... but anyways... i live here in so cal and i go to baja frequently. my family has a home over there. we do the same every year around xmas. we buy toys in mass amounts like when there on sale and junk as well as blankets and clothes and stuff etc. if worst comes to worse you could let me know and i can pick them up at a designated area. or you can also call a local church near the san ysidro border or otay border and they can pick it up for there charity drives.

    If that were true then they wouldn't be poor in the first place. Help fix this country first. Worry about Mexico later.

    But, they're your shirts. Do with them as you want.

    If you want to help the poor kids in mexico you should buy there gum.As a teenager I remember crossing the bridge to get to the border with the sun coming up and swarm of gum selling kids attacking me.The best way to get them away from you is to throw a pocketfull of pennies behind you and then run when the kids are fighting over them.I think I donate enough to poor mexicans by paying state taxes.
    ...the value of an idea has nothing whatsoever to do with the sincerity of the man who expresses it.

    actully.. unfortunately about half of the chicle you buy.. isnt going to feed those kids. Its going to their parents feeding their own habits. Offer a kid a snack or some food, theyd much rather have a cheeseburger then your quarter, that they know they wont get to keep.
