What types of organizations would fund a health care organization?
Q. I am writing a paper that requires me to find an organization or company that would fund a health care organization or social program. The program would be to train young people (ages 18 to 25) for free on basic health care, such as CPR, taking blood pressure, etc. Things people should know how to do in an emergency situation or if the situations simply warrants it. Does anyone know of any organizations or companies that would fund this type of thing? I've been trying to look but have not come up with anything.

Are there any organizations that help others start and run new companies?
Q. Meaning an organization that helps someone start a company not only financially but also gives them advice through market research and or other methods. Also organizations that help companies until they get on their feet. I'm looking for an organization that you can take an idea to and they help you make it happen (turn it into a reality).

How many political organizations exert control and influence over the United States Government?
Q. How many political organizations(secretive political organizations) exert control over the U.S. Government? I've read that there are 12 levels of government that have almost total control over the operations of our government. The CIA, CFR, Tri-lateral comission, and Military-Industrial complex are just a few of these organizations. What do you think?

A. America is controlled not by politicians but by corporations, bankers and Israel. This is it in a nutshell and the same for every government in the western civilisation. People's apathy in voting tied in with disinterest of politics has meant that politicians are no longer politicians per se, but mere puppets of the aforementioned industry. This has all been carefully planned in instituted over a period of time. People's disinterest in politics is not by chance, as our political elite has purposefully created a situation where no one cares anymore what they do, giving them even more power and less resistance to do whatever they so desire.

How many organizations other than the Masonic Lodge claim to be the heirs of the Knights Templar?
Q. An academician friend told me that there are five organizations that sprang up in the late 18th. and early 19th. centuries that make spurious claims of decent from the Templars. I can only remember the Masons and one other that he mentioned (he said that only their capacity for drinking and wenching was a Templar tradition). I only remember on other organization that he named. Do you know what the 5 groups are?

A. I'm aware of a middle ages figure of speech "He drinks like a Templar". They were famous for ignoring their vows. There are no modern organizations that are descended from the Knights of the Temple (and none descended from guilds save those guilds still serving as social groups in London etc.) All the hocus-pocus is play acting on the part of the ring-bangers. And Jacques De Moley had no connection with the club that bears his name.

Do you know of any charitable organizations I could donate books to?
Q. Does anybody know of any charitable organizations in the San Fernando Valley (CA) that would accept/need a donation of books? It has to be a group/organization that would not resell them. We have boxes of leftover holiday clearance books that need a home. Most of them are children's books, but some are for adults. I would be grateful for any information you could give me! The only reason I say it cannot be an organization that will resell them is because those are our company rules, or else we cannot donate the books.

A. The local United Way can direct you to homeless shelters that house moms and kids and to domestic violence shelters. Kids and moms in shelters have had to leave behind a lot of things including books and books will encourage reading. Another possibility is to call your local schools and ask to speak to the hiomeless students coordinator. Your books can help make difference by opening the doors to reading for pleasure to kids who may never have owned a book of their own before.

Are there any organizations in California who will help low income seniors with moving expenses?
Q. I know a senior couple, (one is completely bed ridden), who rent an apartment. They have been told they have to move soon, but do not have the money.

They live in California.
