This kind of thing opens up well-meaning effort and deserving causes to ridicule.

Three ads, two deserving causes and a guy offering to sell me information.

You could, of course, have given it away to a deserving cause.

But I cannot help wondering why the same compassion, inventiveness and energy have not been applied to what appears to be another equally deserving cause.

It also promotes team spirit, raises thousands for well deserving causes and, above all, is fun!

Couldn't the $1.5 billion be used for many more deserving causes?

What more deserving cause could there be than supporting youth in the European Union.

It would be retained by the EU and then perhaps spent on a much less deserving cause.

Nothing will induce me to dress up in women's clothes, not even in such a deserving cause as this one.

Hazel says there are too few servants to hold the event, and also thinks that ordinary soldiers might be a more deserving cause.
