I have not donated since - too many other charities are in need that don’t think I am a racist and owe everyone an apology.
This document wasn’t created overnight - it had to have taken a year or more so the entire time I was donating to them, they were planning on making white people apologize to them for being white. Just revulsive. And scary that this went all the way to the top with every single person every step of the way signing off with approval. Makes me wonder if they treat the people in need different based on color.

Same here. Even when I was a poor college kid I’d send the SA $10 a month. I’ve since found better, non-political charities.
The Salvation Army sure went off the rails spectacularly.
But I will say this. I still admire the SA for not going crazy with executive salaries. Too many so-called charities pay their leadership as if they were kings.
Good question.
At Christmas there are just too many other local options before considering something so quirky.
Only AA bell ringers need apply.
Funny I’ve never had a panhandler white black, brown or green give my money back because there was a white person on it. Did I leave out yellow? I’ve never seen an east asian panhandler. Maybe there is a lesson in that.
