Christian Children’s Fund

CHRISTIAN CHILDREN'S FUND
 
 
ChildFund, formerly known as Christian Children’s Fund, is a child development organization based in Richmond, Virginia, United States. It provides assistance to deprived, excluded and vulnerable children in 30 countries, including the United States.  (More from Wikipedia)
The omission of Sally Struthers’ Tears is particularly surprising, since it is one of my favorites by the Gynecologists (along with Across 110th Street). After her run on All in the Family, Sally Struthers made a series of commercials for the Christian Children’s Fund charity where she would often be shown crying. Despite the mercilessly mocking tone of the song, Tommy Afterbirth manages to capture the way she would plead for help for these children at a cost of “pennies a day”.
