There are countless charities that do great work all over the world. Some of them are locally based, some are more widespread, but for every good cause, it seems like there is at least one charity that specializes in it.

Many of these charities were mentioned by Grand Junction residents in a scenario that if they were given $30,000 to donate to a good cause, these are the charities they would choose to donate to.

Some of the charities mentioned specialize in helping animals including FIP Warriors which helps cats with a specific illness, as well as animal sanctuaries and shelters in general.

Other charities mentioned are specific to battling homelessness which includes Homeward Bound, while others are specific to helping our veterans like Fisher House and Wounded Warriors.

Many children's charities were mentioned such as Colorado Children's Hospital and St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital, as well as other charitable organizations such as TWLOHA, Planned Parenthood, Catholic Outreach, and the Epilepsy Foundation.

It should also be noted that one particular charity was mentioned with a bit of jest, The Human Fund, which was created for a hilarious episode of Seinfeld.
