The Scathing Atheist

You know big shit is going down when I remember that we have this website.

Vulgarity for Charity is underway again this year. After we received a lot of bad news about the charity we’d raised so much money for in the past, we took a year off to reevaluate things. But we’re back with a charity that we’ve personally vetted, run by people we know, and deeply rooted in the community that we love so much.

Recovering From Religion is a toolkit for people who are leaving their faith or thinking about doing so. From their support groups (both online and in person) to their 24 hour hotline to their efforts to help people connect with secular therapists, Recovering From Religion has proven its commitment to our movement, our community, and our values since 2009. And we’re proud to partner with them for this year’s fundraiser.

So here’s a little more about the fundraiser and how it works…

What is it? Vulgarity for Charity is an annual charity drive jointly produced by Puzzle in a Thunderstorm and Cognitive Dissonance podcasts.

When is it? The charity drive is going on now and will continue through Thanksgiving day.

How does it work? During the drive, donors that give $50.00 or more to Recovering From Religion, then click on the “Vulgarity for Charity” tab at the top of their homepage. Fill out the form there, and you might be able to here a roast of your choosing on The Scathing Atheist or Cognitive Dissonance. Please keep in mind that if the person or thing is not famous then the donor should also send an image and a short description so they can get a proper roast. 

What can you do to help? Make a donation to Recovering From Religion during Vulgarity for Charity. If you cannot donate, share the word within your social networks and communities.
