Yesterday was the last day to make any charitable contributions to help with your taxes. I donated to wikipedia. Just wondering if there are any tax-deductible charities related to strip clubs or adult business? I was thinking something like a group that promotes freedom of speech but I am not familiar with any too well.
I remember I was once at the Doll House of Columbus and they asked if I wanted to buy a candy bar to help support some sort of gentlemen's club group. I am guessing it was not an official charity and not tax-deductible though.

last commentlol Samsung, probably a charity to help strippers, sorry dancers, pay their bills? I donate to 'Help for Heroes', a charity to help the lads and thier families cope with injuries etc whilst serving in theater.

Someone should incorporate a 501(c)(3) charitable foundation for retired fat, ugly and rude strippers and then get them to retire. I would donate to the cause.

John's Wet Spot in Belleville fit the bill if they could get their tax status changed.

Samsung, that probably was BACE, Buckeye Association of Club Executives. But they were a trade association lobbying the legislature and fighting the new sc legislation in Ohio. I'm sure they didn't have 503c qualifications. But what an inept group they were. Their efforts didn't change any outcomes in Ohio. They could have had a better impact if they had allied themselves with other business interests. (Maybe that's easier said that done.) If anyone did donate to their coffers there is a good chance the money never went to any lobbying effort as the group was highly criticized among other owners for the way it was run. It turns out that one woman who was giving them legal advice a few years ago didn't even have a law degree.
SuperDude, seriously, there actually should be a non-profit for dancers who want to transition to other jobs. That would make it safer to become a dance, to the benefit of the rest of us.

gk,I have known many that have made the transition, One teaches at Clemson, one is a paramedic. I know 2 that I am positive are back in school. One to become a dental hygienist. The other is doing computer sciences.I will miss them.
There will always be others to take their places but gaining their trust takes a lot of time and money. I love my favorites. I know their rules or lack of.

Think about it, every stripper out there looks at us customers as a tax-free charity.

I also donated to wikipedia. I'm on there all the time, and usually find something that needs editing. I even got some original articles
(Nothing to do with strip clubs, though).

Shadowcat, same with me. I know former dancers who are now nurses, one attorney, several medical asistants, several sales reps and a few others in various professions--then there are the rest who transition into non-skillled jobs hoping to find something lucrative, but most don't.
And finally there are a few lost souls who just can't figure anythning out; they seem too helpless, still live in the moment, don't make plans--these are the types whou could benefit from some help.

I would like to see a charity for "Abused Psychotic Stalked Druggie Amateur Porn Star Ex-Cheerleader Strippers with Sleazy Boyfriends and Babies." I'm already making donations, it would be nice to write them off on my taxes.

gk, we are fucking our selves. We want pussy. We pay for it. If we help them get out of the business, we are losing good sources.
I am probably the biggest PL on here. Some of you know her name. Most will never know.
So I saved one that deserved it. But there will always be another pussy wanting money.
