Give an Hour

Give an Hour™ is a nonprofit 501(c)(3), founded in September 2005 by Dr. Barbara V. Romberg, a psychologist in the Washington, D.C., area. The organization’s mission is to develop national networks of volunteers capable of responding to both acute and chronic conditions that arise within our society.

Currently, GAH is dedicated to meeting the mental health needs of the troops and families affected by the ongoing conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan. We provide counseling to individuals, couples and families, and children and adolescents. We offer treatment for anxiety, depression, substance abuse, post-traumatic stress disorder, traumatic brain injuries, sexual health and intimacy concerns, and loss and grieving.

GAH has been featured and Dr. Romberg has been interviewed in countless articles, television segments, and radio casts in the last few months, as the mental health needs of the troops have become strikingly apparent.

Corporate Angel Network

Corporate Angel Network is the only charitable organization in the USA whose sole mission is to ease the emotional stress, physical discomfort and financial burden of travel for cancer patients by arranging free flights to treatment centers, using the empty seats on corporate aircraft flying on routine business.



Based in White Plains, NY, Corporate Angel Network occupies an office donated by the Westchester County Airport. 50 part-time volunteers and five paid staff work with patients, physicians, corporations, flight departments and leading treatment facilities to arrange 2,500 flights a year.

Eligibility to participate in our program is open to all cancer patients, bone marrow donors, and bone marrow recipients who are ambulatory and not in need of medical support while traveling. Eligibility is not based on financial need, and patients may travel as often as necessary.

Thanks to the generous cooperation of 500 of America’s top corporations, including 56 of the top 100 in the Fortune 500, Corporate Angel Network has coordinated more than 25,000 flights since it’s founding in 1981. The program offers an obvious and meaningful benefit to cancer patients along with the opportunity for companies with corporate aircraft to provide a wonderful community service by merging business.

House of Charity

Healing Home

Since 1997, The House of Charity has housed the children we sponsor for medical care at local hospitals and clinics in apartments, hotel rooms and volunteers’ homes. In April of 2002 the board of directors of The House of Charity decided to move forward with its plan of purchasing a home that would be a permanent location to house these children providing:

We searched Houston for the perfect location and found a duplex in West Houston in the Walnut Bend subdivision. This home is more than just a place to stay for these children. We are providing a safe and comfortable environment for these children to not only heal physically but also heal the mental wounds they have received from a life of special challenges, neglect and ridicule. We are helping them grow confidence and self reliance by teaching them the necessary skills to survive this world. Just over three weeks after we closed on the property we were able to move the children from the apartment to The House of Charity Healing Home.

Healing Home

This home is more than just a place to stay for these children. It is a safe and comfortable environment for these children to not only heal physically, but to also heal the mental and emotional wounds they have received over years of difficult struggle, facing challenges, neglect, ridicule, and turmoil.

The most beautiful part about the Healing Home is that it brings children from different areas and backgrounds together to come and live under one roof, just like a family. We would love for all of you to come and visit the home, so whenever you have time, please call and arrange to come and spend some time with the children and take a glimpse of the magic that takes place in the Healing Home every single day.

The home can accommodate 25 children at a time, who are constantly under the care and supervision of a registered nurse and dedicated volunteers. All local children travel with one parent and 90% of the international children travel with an escort and stay in our healing home. Their stays can range from 6 months to 9 months to full one year, and most children require multiple surgeries

Wheels Appeal

Wheels Appeal

In Monmouth County, public transportation does not meet the needs of the poor, who solely rely on it to get to and from work. Through the Needs Assessment Survey, the United Way of Monmouth County has identified that the third most crucial need in our county is transportation. The Wheels Appeal program is designed to help with these transportation needs. The program has two components:

* Donated vehicles are received, assessed, and repaired if necessary and appropriate. In 2007, Wheels Appeal gave vehicles worth $33,390 to qualified applicants.
* Vehicles are re-donated to qualified applicants in Monmouth County.

A law passed in 2004 changed the tax-deduction policy. However, the IRS still allows a fair market value write-off for a vehicle that is donated and re-donated to a needy person. If a vehicle is not appropriate for re-donation, the vehicle may be sold. Love INC has the ability to receive cars to be sold from most parts of the continental United States. The proceeds are used to repair other vehicles or to support the various programs of Love INC.

To donate a vehicle or apply for a used vehicle, please call 732-542-7012, ext. 206.

The Sierra Group

What we do

The Foundation has been established as a 501C(3) non-profit organization that invests our resources in three areas. They are:

* Establishing sustainable forums and tools that connect people to existing resources. All too often the systems designed to save a job for a person with a disability are complicated to navigate. The Foundation seeks to deploy tools and training that allow for easier access to the funded infrastructure already in place.

* Supporting relevant research on accessible technology in the workplace and supporting high levels of professional standards and credentials. Accessing reliable information and consistent advice lies at the center of every sustainable business process. The Foundation seeks to share best practice ideas that can transform the recruiting and hiring process allowing more qualified candidates with disabilities to secure competitive employment.

* Providing grants to support job-seekers with disabilities in securing the tools they need to secure competitive employment. Transportation, wardrobe, and adaptive technology costs can sometimes stand in the way of a person realizing an opportunity that they are qualified to accept. The Foundation seeks to provide resources to help eliminate these obstacles so that qualified people can succeed in employment

Free Cataract Surgery

What are cataracts?

Like a camera, the eye has a lens to focus sharp images. Vision is good when the lens is clear and focuses light on a healthy retina at the back of the eye.

Cataracts are a clouding of this natural lens, and they are a part of the normal aging process. If we live long enough, we will all get them. Some cataracts are caused by birth defects, injuries, medications, infections, radiation, toxic substances or severe electric shock.

Cataracts are the most common cause of blurred vision for people over the age of 50. Although there is no medicine or diet to cure cataracts, surgical removal of the cataract and replacement with a permanent artificial lens implant can restore lost vision.

An estimated 15 million people in the world are blinded by cataracts. Thousands who lack Medicare, Medicaid, third-party insurance or any other means to pay for surgery have already been helped by Mission Cataract.

Small Dollar Loan Pilot Program

Small-Dollar Loan Pilot Program

In February 2008, the FDIC began a two-year pilot project to review affordable and responsible small-dollar loan programs in financial institutions.

The pilot is a case study intended to identify effective and replicable business practices to help banks incorporate affordable small-dollar loans into their other mainstream banking services. Best practices resulting from the pilot will be identified and become a resource for other institutions. Thirty-two (32) volunteer banks are participating. These banks have total assets ranging from $26 million to $10 billion and they are in diverse geographic locations.

Program Requirements
A key goal of the pilot is to observe and encourage participating institutions to experiment with providing safe, sound, affordable, and profitable small-dollar loans. Therefore, the FDIC has provided general guidelines for banks that seek to participate. It is anticipated that current or planned products offered by the participating banks are generally consistent with the FDIC's guidelines on small-dollar lending (see FDIC Press Release: PR-52-2007: FDIC Issues Final Guidelines on Affordable Small-Dollar Loans)

Key features described in the Guidelines on Affordable Small-Dollar Loans include:

* Loan amounts of up to $1,000;
* Amortization periods longer than a single pay cycle and up to 36 months for closed-end credit, or minimum payments that reduce principal (i.e., do not result in negative amortization) for open-end credit;
* Annual percentage rates (APR) below 36 percent;
* No prepayment penalties;
* Origination and/or maintenance fees limited to the amount necessary to cover actual costs; and
* An automatic savings component.

Do You Still Owe a Debt No Matter How Old? Find Out Here.

Are you being hounded by a debt collector for an old debt you thought was written off years ago? If so, it is likely you are being contacted by a scavenger debt collector, which is a company that purchases older, mostly uncollectible debt for a tiny fraction of its value. Scavenger debt collectors are notorious for using illegal and unethical methods to collect "time-barred" debt.

You do not have to pay debt that is considered too old by your state. Every state has laws governing the time in which a person or entity can file suit to collect a debt. Generally, a creditor or debt collector gives up his right to file suit to collect a debt after a period of six years from the time the debt was written off (or the date of last activity on your credit report), but various states allow anywhere from 2 to 15 years to collect delinquent debt (see statutes of limitation table below).

Got a Complaint Against a Lawyer? Or Need Legal Assistance?

Many clients of lawyers have a positive experience, but many more seem to have one or more problems. It could be a problem with fees, with the results, with the burdens of discovery, with the delays, or with the irrationality of the system. Often they blame the lawyer for the problem, but don't know what to do about it. Maybe it's not the lawyer's fault at all -- they just don't know. They also feel that the entire legal system is designed to protect its own -- they don't know who to turn to or what to do. Clients, even large corporations, also feel that if they ask their lawyer questions or doubt their lawyer, the lawyer will retaliate against them.

No matter how sympathetic or irrational the situation may be, there are also times when the lawyer or legal system is not wrong or to be blamed. Sometimes you just need to move along.

While every issue is not alike, here are some common ways to address the problems with lawyers we see most often:

If you think you have been a victim of legal malpractice, the normal remedy is a new lawsuit for malpractice. It is generally not malpractice simply for a lawyer to lose -- the question is usually whether the lawyer was negligent in representing you and it caused you harm. Your first step is to try to locate a lawyer who handles such cases in your area.

Check with local bar referral sources to find a lawyer who handles this type of claim. Helpful links appear below.

It is normal for clients to be concerned that the system will protect its own. There are, however, lawyers who will sue lawyers -- just find the right one.

Lawyers who prey on their clients will rely on every trick of their trade to avoid liability -- clients seeking to pursue a legal malpractice claim must be prepared for a grueling experience.

The American Legion

In the 1920s, The American Legion began a national program of Temporary Financial Assistance to keep the children of deceased or disabled veterans at home rather than in institutions. This cash aid is still available for cases not covered by subsequent state and federal programs for the needy. In 2007 of eligible veterans, the TFA program provided more than $562,100 to 521 families, benefiting almost 1198 children.

Through TFA, a local post can call upon the national organization for cash assistance to help maintain the basic needs of veterans' children. The TFA fund has been used to assist families in meeting the costs of shelter, food, utilities and health expense items when the parents are unable to do so, thereby keeping the child, or children, in a more stable home environment.
TFA Case Studies

Not being able to work due to an operation on his shoulder, a 20 percent disabled veteran and his two minor children were in financial difficulty. The mother of the children had abandoned the family, providing no support. While the family was receiving Food Stamps and assistance with their rent, they had fallen behind on the electric bill, and there was a good chance it would be cut-off. While a Service Officer was working to upgrade the veteran's disability claim, the Temporary Financial Assistance program stepped in and paid the electric bill, assuring the children would have a safe and warm home in which to live.

A Persian Gulf War veteran, with two minor children and a 17-year member of the Air Force National Guard, was discharged due to a disability he received while on active duty. When he was granted 50 percent disability VA benefits, he was informed he would have to repay thousands of dollars received as severance pay upon his discharge, reducing his monthly benefit to a paltry $182 a month. This amount, however, coupled with the minimum wages received by his wife, put the family $6 over the income limit to receive food stamps. In addition, the family had fallen behind in their rent. The Temporary Financial Assistance program provided rent money sufficient to ward off eviction as a service officer worked to increase the disability claim with the VA and assisted the veteran in filing for Social Security benefits.

Sometimes the Temporary Financial Assistance program simply provides dollars to help the parents with the general health and welfare of the children. Such was the case when a Coast Guard veteran was discharged with a very serious skin disease developed from exposure to chemicals used in his military trained maintenance position as an airplane mechanic. He was hired by civilian companies, because of his military training, but was again exposed to chemicals similar to those that caused the original problem. As a result, it was finally determined he would have to be retrained through the VA Vocational Rehabilitation program. The veteran's wife was a substitute teacher, and the income from this work was sporadic, at best, and the family was falling behind financially. Assistance was provided to give this family a hand up until the veteran was enrolled in the Vocational Rehabilitation program.
