Red Cross and other groups from the WashPost

So these orgs, Red Cross, Cancer fundraising et al are more interested in making political statements then raising money for their charities. Shame on them.

I remember when Red Cross was begging for money in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina.

They took in millions and millions.

But the didn't spend that much on Katrina recovery, but kept millions for future problems.

A very deceptive practice which soured me on the Red Cross. I always suggest that people give to orgs that are closely connected to those that are in need.

What you said - plus...

I have personally known officials in both Red Cross and United Way.
Knew them - did not like them one bit.

Flaunted their affluent lifestyles with a thinly veiled sneer
toward those who footed the bill.
