Sad to hear it as me and my father give to them regularly. It doesn’t surprise me though, as that happens with a lot of charities, they get these a-holes in who think because a charity takes in a lot of money, that they can then pay themselves like a Fortune 500 CEO which is outrageous because it’s a CHARITY.
I’m sending this article to my dad with this quotation....
“According to the charity’s tax forms obtained by CBS News, spending on conferences and meetings went from $1.7 million in 2010, to $26 million in 2014, which is the same amount the group spends on combat stress recovery.”
That is absolutely INSANELY outrageous!!!! TWENTY SIX MILLION!!! As if vets aren’t being screwed over enough as it is!!
Don't let the media dictate your opinion of them. Charity Navigator .org says they're legitimate. There are several other charity watchdogs out there. Check them out yourself. I did and I'm still comfortable giving to them.
