Instead of redirecting it's responsibilities toward Charity our Government should be honouring it's Covenant commitments' and providing the appropriate support to Marines and other Veterans' in need.
If they were to receive the support they have earned and so richly deserve then those who have shared their experiences wouldn't be driven to extremes to fill the void brought by a worthless one-sided Covenant.

10 former Royal Marines will yomp from RM Condor to Spean Bridge covering 210 miles while carrying 30 lbs within 5 days across roads, tracks, and mountainous terrain commencing 03-Nov-2009 and completing 07-Nov-2009.
All proceeds in aid of the Royal Marines Benevolent Fund to ensure funds go directly to deserving physically and psychologically injured Marines debilitated in service since 2000.
All contributions very gratefully received. [show less]
@Bootneck I've tweaked your topic by expanding on the message in your tweet http://twitter.com/mwg45/statuses/5343162697 and moved your initiative into the answers section so it can be syndicated across multiple sites and forums using this code http://veterans-uk.ws/....php5?id=42 to draw attention and hopefully other inspire other initiatives.
I hope that our Government will wake up one day and see how being commensurate with it's undertakings will bring about recruitment, retention and other benefits.
