While I think Twibbon is a good way of highlighting a cause, I hope you all remember to go out and actually buy a poppy.

Remember The Royal British Legion Poppy Twibbon does not put money into the charity. The charity actually needs cold hard cash. By buying a poppy you are not supporting wars. You are helping pay for the treatment, physical and mental of injured service personnel. You are paying for homeless shelters that rehabilitate service personnel who have lost their way. You are paying to support families who have lost sons, daughters and parents to the ravages of war. You are also remembering those who gave their lives before.

So though the Twibbon highlights the cause, buying the poppy will actually support the cause.
