According to my mother-in-law when her Dad served in WWI the Red Cross charged the soldiers for coffee and donuts. The Salvation army gave them away for free. So she only donates to the Army.

My mother said the same thing... my grandfather always got free coffee and donuts from the Salvation Army during the time he served in WWI.
