| [Daily Mail, where America gets its news] Queen Mary and King Frederik have likely infuriated thousands of Danes by sending a 'clear message' about their new reign - after months of scrutiny surrounding their rumoured marriage troubles. The newly-minted royals have decided to slash the amount of charities and community groups which are able to be supported by the royal family at any time. In doing so, 118 groups have been cut from the official list of royal patronages leaving 140 to be represented by the family. |

| #5 Agreed #2 Pk. I stopped giving to umbrella organizations, even when pressured at work, when I took a look at all the politicized NGOs they were supporting nationally... Target your charity. |

| #4 Children's homes in your community or near by are usually a good bet. If you are a regular, they put you on newsletter distribution. Seeing kids go to farm pond fishing tournament or singing at an old folk s home is personally rewarding. |

| #2 A model for all. Stop mindless giving to organizations you've given to for years and make sure they're still the organizations you thought they were those years ago. |

| #1 Fluff...until readers consider the economic impact of rearmament, border defense and joining NATO. This is easier to manage than citizens losing their allowance. |
