Who's going to do that? It won't be anyone on here since you can do that better than we can. This site doesn't offer call blocking, or placing individual's numbers on any no call lists.
Received a call from the Children's Cancer Recover Foundation.
To the above comment that says it is reputable, READ ON.
First you say they are good because they buy GAMES for kids with cancer!!! What help is that? When most people give to a charity, they assume it goes for research or to help a family with medical bills.
Before giving to any charity, check them out. Here is what Charity Navigator says about this "charity."

And CNN recently did an extended report on the 50 worst charities. This "charity" ranks #11. They raise $37.5 million, they pay the solicitors $29.2 million and a grand total of
.6% goes for aid!!!!
Being registered in any state means nothing. States rarely investigate charities because of a shortage of manpower.
When I answered, an assumed recording started but cut off mid-word. I called back to be removed from calling list and it claimed their "answering machine was full". I live in Illinois, and never trust this type of phone call.
This number previously had called here and left no voicemail (SHOCKER!). They called me Wednesday during dinner and the man on the other line (very thick accent) went on his spiel. I very politely told him I was not interested at the time being (even said "Thank you for contacting me"!) and the man replied with "Well, ma'am, the reason for my call, God d*mn it.. nevermind.", then promptly hung up. I left a voicemail on their machine (very surprised that they had reps to solicit phone calls, but none to take calls from others) to tell what happened. Heard back within an hour while still eating and was accused of leaving a nasty message! There is absolutely no way to win with these people! Told them to remove me from calling list or be reported to BBB. Was hung up on after the last 'B' came out of my mouth. Do NOT donate to these crooks! Money is wasted.
Confused, this is an invaluable post - thank you for sharing it!
Last week (before I had my first cup of coffee,) the phone rang and and a female asked for me by name (disturbing that this scum has my personal information.) While she neither clearly identified herself nor the organization she was representing, she launched into her spiel: a spiel that sounded oddly familiar! When asked if she could, "send me an envelope for a small donation," I responded, "sounds good" (by the way, NEVER say, "OK" or "Yes" when speaking to these rodents.) She then continued on, with the excuse, "they make me ask this" and tried to elicit from me how large a donation I would be making, concluding with the comment, "the usual donation is 75 to 100 dollars." At that point, I said "Bye Bye."
After hanging up, I reviewed my records and discovered that a female had used this same spiel twice in the past two months: first incident representing "Breast Cancer" and the second incident representing "Leukemia."
OK, gang, time to go to work! Let's put these rodents in a cage where they belong.
They call almost daily. "Children's Cancer" comes up on Caller ID. Next time they call, I'm going to answer. But I'm going to start crying and ask them why they keep trying to give me children's cancer. I don't want cancer! Lol
