Good name for a Diabetes Charity?

What is a good charity name for an organization or cause for needy families?

• I'm wanting to create a charity facebook page for needy familes. Like a place where people can donate items to children in need at christmas time, victims of storms who no longer have anything, homeless people, ect...you get the idea. My problem really isnt so much the name, it's how i will run this charity group????? I could probably come up with a name if i could figure out how i was going to run it properly and securely. I want people to be able to donate stuff to needy people but also feel that what they are donating is actually going to a needy person and not just some greedy person wanting everything people offer for free. I could accept donations and take it to needy familes myself but then people probably wouldnt trust me to actually take it there unless they knew me personally & if they were going to bring it to me, why not just go ahead and take it to a charity case themself? I would like for needy families or people who know of someone needy to be able to post what they need & people who want to donate, be able to donate to those people. I am just stuck on how I can actually run a legit charity using a facebook page & people trust that their donations are actually going to needy people. How can I run a legit charity facebook page that people can trust & post to with confidence? And what could I name it? Any help would be greatly appreciative.

  Hi, I can see you are quite passionate about the charity. I am a student, and my partner founded a registered charity in high school!. We are a student run charity, that consists of school & university students - no adults. For young people, by young people. Basically you need to create something new, something fresh nobody has seen before. We are successful because their is no other charity in our country that is like us. That is what makes us different. You need to name the charity so it has a ring to it. Something catchy, something that stands out. You need to high light the fact "we are a non profitable charitable organization" people will see you are for the good, that your non making a profit. Make it a place where people can get resources and information. Things to include on the FB page, on the info part is something about the charity. Such as " ____(charity name)___ was founded in 2011, by (__name)___ who wanted to create something new and fresh, that ---(name of country)___ hasn't seen before. We are here to ____ write mission statement___ by making a difference in todays society. You need a good description. With good grammar. People will trust you then. You also need awareness. Print flyers. You will NOT get ANYWHERE without arawness. 'word of mouth' isn't enough. distribute flyers, presentation evening, posters, put it in the news paper. Get a couple of friends, that are good with time and good under pressure, to help spread the word. I learnt all this on our long journey. I would like to discuss this with you, please email me on [email protected] , i can show you step by step what we did... I would prefer to tell you the charity in private, rather than publicity. Thanks
