OT - Charitable Requests Overwhelming

I have saved all charitable requests received in the mail since about the middle of October, just for curiosity. As of this morning, I have more than 40 requests for support. There may be some duplicates in the pile, I didn't make any effort to sort out and throw out duplicates. I use Charity Navigator as my primary screening tool, as well as those local charities my wife and I are personally acquainted with. It still is a huge amount of effort to relieve my wife and myself of our hard-earned pension and savings. What do other folks do?
I'm sure many are worthy, however when you are on a pension (if you are
lucky to have one) you need to support yourself first, otherwise you
become part of the problem.
