Diseases and afflictions of the eye. My daughter is legally blind with an incurable eye disease. I would give everything to help her and others like her.
-
I'd raise awareness of cardiac risk in the young, but also heart conditions in general. I'd also raise awareness of how important organ donation is.
-
Eliminating homelessness and free medical care for the poor.

I would support the building of orphanages in impoverished communities, cheap and easily available medical care to those communities, research on renewable and sustainable energy for those places, and clean water, either through pumps or filtering. I would give my time and money, as well as my name. I give my money now so why would that change if I became famous. I am anxious to give my time once me and my family are able to do so. Good question. I cannot give you any points but I really liked the question.:)

Child Abuse prevention, Animal rescue and Alzheimer's research.

I would support teach for america and all programs that work to aid in closing the achievement gap in low-income, urban classrooms. I would also support any programs that help fund/encourage/inform latino and african-american students to finish high school and go to college.

Like John and Yoko,, It would be for world peace,for there has been too much attention lately about war,and not enough interest in peace.

I was thinking of this question over the weekend. It wasn't the same example, but I'm amazed to see it here! You definately get my points. As for my answer, I would probably go with child abuse, and programs to get help for children, be it education or tutors, or abuse help. Maybe the Boys and Girls Club...
