How do I donate
Squidoo splits its revenue with its "co-op" of lensmasters. 5% goes straight to charity, first. Then 50% goes to the lensmasters. 45% goes to Squidoo. The site estimates that nearly half of all the lensmasters on the site are donating their royalties to any of 65 featured charities.To donate your lensmaster's 50% to charity, go to the edit mode of a lens, edit your "payment options" in the right hand side bar to change to the Squidoo Charity Fund or your selected charity.
If you want to change your payment options for all lenses, change your "Global Payment Settings" in your profile.
What else can I do ?
Why not start a lens for your favorite charity !Go to the Headquarters page of your selected charity and click on the big orange "Build My Own Lens" button and you'll be able to create a co-branded page that spreads awareness of and will keep giving to your selected charity.
Of course you can also go to your charities' website and make a direct donation as well !

Warm as charity: why giving feels good

THE warm, fuzzy feeling from doing a good deed has been placed under scientific scrutiny, with researchers investigating what happens in the brain when people donate to charity.

- Does Squidoo no not have a charity for Autistic children? I was looking for a charity to share my earnings on my articles about Autistic grants but could not find any to match. Maybe I skipped over it?

- You have done such a great job on putting all these charity lenses together. SquidAngel blessed. I am also making a lens (My Squid Angel Memorial Day Weekend Bus Trip Quest) on my SquidAngel Quest and I'll feature your lens there. Come and visit in a couple of days.

- I would love to be able to donate to Operation Smile. This organization performs plastic surgery on children with cleft lips/palates. This is very near & dear to my heart because I was born with a cleft lip.

- I'd like to be able to donate to the Team USA Olympic Team. Since I'm doing a lot of Olympic lenses, and the economy has been making it more difficult for athletes to get the sponsorships that they need, I think that it would be nice to give a little back.
