Charities Orchid Recovery Center Approves of

The fashion/lifestyle magazine Marie Claire recently named the Top 10 Charities for Women, as named by the editors of the magazine.  The list features a wide variety of worthy causes – each designed to benefit women in need or suffering from illness.

The list includes a number of well-known charities, including The International AIDS Vaccine Initiative (IAVI) and The Breast Cancer Research Foundation, as well as some lesser known causes that deserve everyone’s attention.

At The Orchid Recovery Center we are dedicated to supporting worthy causes such as these and hope you will get involved and make donations.  Every dollar helps, so even if times are tight for you right now, we urge you to give.
