Jun 1, 2025Bono has a “non-profit” organization (NPO) called ‘ONE’ that received almost ÂŁ9.6million in donations in 2008 but handed out only ÂŁ118,000 to good causes (1.2%).
Same as it ever was. Don’t get me started on FarmAid!!
You could not write a made-for-tv-movie with a more obvious plot.
Grifters grift.
I’ll bet most of the fire victims could not afford to be concert goers, so the affluents got to see their stars but the victims got no stars and now no money.
A lot of overhead costs.
“ instead making its way to non-profits with high-salary executives.”
I am in favor of ending all nonprofit status for all organizations. People who want to donate to true charities such as their own church will still donate even without a tax deduction. It will probably never happen because too many members of Congress have their own nonprofit family trusts, etc..
Before any money is released, 10 democRATS need their 10% each.
Perhaps the victims could apply for assistance from the Clinton Globull Initiative.
What is a nonprofit family trust?
Newsrooms hair dont style itself
I would wager this story never gets picked up by either NPR or the New York Times.
Kind of interesting how the MSM filters the news.
Nonprofit family trust is a type of foundation which a family controls. It raises money tax exempt. It donates some of this money to a charity and can pay its family members to run it. Many are really a scam as very little money ever reaches a person truly in need. Check “nonprofit family trust” on the Internet for details.
Some democrat’s pockets.
The bigger atrocity is that they’re scheming to force property owners to finally give up and sell the property for pennies on the dollar at great profit and benefit to them.
It’s beyond reprehensible.
Agreed!
“Nonprofit family trust is a type of foundation “
Nope.
It’s great. Millions of dollars to “charities” to distribute to other charities which pass it on to other charities, to help a charity to give the money to a charity that gives the few pennies left over to some director of another charity. What a scam. What will be the cream on top will be that these charities are going to be the ones grabbing the cheap land to turn them in to “affordable housing” for bums and illegal aliens.
I wonder what the pass through rates are of “The Clinton Foundation.”
Maxine Waters...we have a mop up cleaning mess on aisle 14.
...but how did it make you feel?
Color me surprised at a low life scam in Newscum’s Ca.
