This crap goes on in all of these “charities.” If all the money wasn’t being sucked up in travel and salaries and perks, people in need may actually be able to be helped. This stuff is disgusting.

Which is why I only give to individuals and not “charities”

This is why there are only a few charaties that I believe in and (willingly, my employer twists my arm) contribute to:

1. The Salvation Army. These people ALL work from the leaders on down, and pay their own way down to the uniforms and gas.

2. Certain animal welfare charities.

Many others are basically legal rackets.
