Millions of Americans generously donate a slice of their paychecks every year, offering to help those in need while maybe earning a slice of good karma.
The US charity industry is worth well over $2 trillion, but many have no idea the sector is littered with greed, and their good intentions may be lining the pockets of fatcat CEOs instead.
According to a study by the Tampa Bay Times and the Center for Investigative reporting, the 50 worst charities in America gave less than four percent of donations to their advertised recipients from 2003 to 2013.

Got asked to put my spare change in a Wal-Mart bucket. Got a smirk after telling the checkout wench that I’ll think about it.

I invest here. Will not solve their problems but you might get some welcomes in heaven.

I saw no big surprises on the list. I have known for over 60 years that there is big money in “Charities” and “Non-Profits” ever since I worked for a large church publishing house back in the 1960s. But they are a damn good way to get pretty dog gone wealthy.
I suspect some for profit corporations donate more money to needy causes than all the “non-profit” charities combines

Every $0.98 of every dollar goes to veterans via Code of Vets. Helped them out a while back.
Hillary kept 95% of Congress relief for Haiti.
I believe the spent $10million on Chelsea’s wedding. I wonder where that came from?
BLM figures that it is bullet proof. If you are against Black Lives Matter, what you are saying is that black live don’t matter - liberal logic.
