About the same for the federal govt.
Well it funded the treatment of one woman suffering from nomoneyitis.
Freaking evil.
This is why I won’t ever give to fund raises for charity stuff.
Sounds like Skunk Cabbage’s “Haiti Foundation”.
Sounds like ASCPA

Didn’t the BiXiden Crime have their own Cancer Foundation scam?

If someone wants to give to a charity, they should check out to whom they are giving first. It's not hard to find on the Web. Here is an example: nonprofitpoint.com/charities-with-lowest-overhead/.
Also maybe see charitywatch.org/nonprofit-compensation-packages-of-1-million-or-more. Now to be fair some of them probably earn it -- running a huge charity is a tough job and you need someone very skilled who could probably make more in the for-profit sector in charge. That said, suspect at least of some of them don't come close to deserving that much compensation.
I could list some of my personal favorites and least favorites.
OK, will list one of my favorites: St. Jude Children's Research. See St. Jude Children's Research. They do a lot of good. One site says $0.82 of every dollar goes to "treatment, research and future needs." That apparently does not count the funds spent to pay for flights and provide housing/food to families. The Church itself pays for most if not all admin costs. However, St. Jude does spend a bit on advertising.
When I had money, I gave to St. Jude. Intend to do so again if I ever get paid - and of course to Free Republic.
Anyone else have any favorite(s)?
IMO, much of the cancer charity realm is deceiving and only in it for the money. SGK is one. Their donation walk sponsor drives for cancer are despicable IMO.
unbelievable......this is why my charity giving is very limited.....I don’t trust most of them.
Gee, how greedy.
Even the Clinton Foundation usually manages to disburse as much as 3% of their donations to the people they claim to help...
I used to think that most charities were scams....
But now, I believe that they are ALL scams,
with the possible exception of a few small local operations run by volunteers, not paid executives and employees.
Didn’t think I’d get in before someone else referenced George Costanza’s “Human Fund.” That could be where this guy got the idea for his scam.
I wonder what lies will be fabricated by the defense for this trial?
So they spent $15 mil to raise $18 mil....that’s where the real scam is. Who’s running the fundraisers?
