I think their mistake is collecting funds in a majority Christian nation. Instead of a nation founded on Christian charity, they should stay out of America and find contributors in the nations of religions they do approve of and see how they do.
I fail to see how their "inclusion" policy that excludes Christians will win them much advantage in their bottom line, but they should go try, or go spit, I no longer care which.
To: Howlin
And they should lose that cross on their emblem, they don't deserve to display it, it's misleading.

Pinging bump to send the Red Cross Monopoly money, because it doesn't say "In God We Trust" on it.
To: all
The Red Cross has come under increasing scrutiny during the last six months. When it was discovered that they were not going to spend all thedonations related to 09/11 on victims of that event, reaction from the public and government influenced them to change their mind.Last night CBS Sixty-Minutes made a presentation that sought to claim this wasn't the first time the Red Cross had tried to use donated funds on unrelated activities. Those who listen to this real audio file will hear a report that sounds a lot like the events surrounding the 09/11 fund.
Click on the link for the audio from last nights Sixty-Minutes' Report. LINK
There's a little background noise on this. Sorry about that.

I like your idea,now all I need is monopoly money and the address but I am sure it is here because I did not read all the posts.

I saw the 60 minutes piece on the Red Cross last night. (Sunday 3/10).
A classic, 60 minutes full-scale attack.
Withering, scathing, no-holds-barred report that showed the Southern California Chapter of the American Red Cross had solicited funds using the photophaphs and names of local disaster victims... with NO intention What-So-Ever of letting any of those victims have One Dime of the funds.
The local chapter president gets $300,000 per year.
$100,000 of which is BONUS for operating in the black.
That means Not Spending or disbursing solicited funds.
Red Cross basically did not respond.

Their cross is morphing into something more fitting.

RE: Your experience, It's sad to hear one of our finest had to go through that, but fortunately it turned out alright for you and your family. I guess there might be more out there that have their tales to tell RE: the RC. Thanks for your input.

America was attacked by suicide bombers on September 11th. Since then, the American Red Cross has been trying to commit suicide, and succeeding admirably.

She said the group they liked the most was the SALVATION ARMY. I never forgot that. My Father said the same and I always contribute to them. Thanks for your input. I wished I had asked more back then when I heard how much the RC was not liked by the service men but I was just a kid and didn't pay THAT much attention to ask questions as to why.
To: fatima
Here is the address again for donations by mail:
American Red Cross
P.O. Box 37243
Washington, DC 20013
Most dept stores sell the "money only" right beside the complete game in the toy section, plus Timesink posted a link to order it on an earlier post. Have at it!

Thanks for your input jackliberty.

during WW2 in the Pacific was that enlisted folks were allowed to buy coffee and doughnuts while officers were given free food and entertainment. My father too was in the Pacific, and somehow your story sounds somewhat familiar. Sad isn't it. Well, I have heard many good stories about the Salvation Army and that is who I always contribute to. I have always had my doubts about the RC. Thanks for your input and God Bless all you service guys out there.

How Long Does It Take To Know the American Red Cross? More than 60 Minutes
On Sunday, March 10, the CBS News show 60 Minutes ran a misleading and inaccurate story about the American Red Cross. Below is the real story of the Red Cross, as well as specific examples of inaccuracies in the 60 Minutes story.
