I will NEVER give a dime to the Red Cross again. I am a firm believer in donating to local community concerns that a person can monitor or even gain hands on involvement in.

If a national disaster occurs, donating to local church charities is a lot better than donating to the Red Cross.

Right on!

Was listening to Glenn Beck (talk show host) today and he said there was an awful fire somewhere and the Red Cross stepped in asking for donations. He asked some people at the station how much they thought the Red Cross collected. One guy said $300,000 - another said $175,000 and so on. Finally Beck said what they collected - $75.00. Goodbye Red Cross and Good Riddance.
