Reading about fraud is always upsetting, but reading about charity fraud is downright infuriating.
When the already-impoverished nation of Haiti was struck by a devastating earthquake in 2010, people around the world opened their checkbooks to donate money to the reconstruction of the country. Among the recipients of these generous donations was the Red Cross, who pledged to help the people of Haiti get back on their feet with the millions of dollars given to them.
Yet five years after launching LAMIKA, a project named after a Creole acronym for “A Better Life In My Neighborhood” and meant to build hundreds of homes in Port-Au-Prince, only six homes have been built across the entire country, forcing citizens to continue dwelling in shacks without water, electricity or basic sanitation and regular flooding. In short, the Red Cross has delivered far less than it promised not just to it’s donors, but to the people it claimed it would help as well.

The Red Cross is a scam!
I would not give a dime to the Red Cross! They are known for collecting millions of dollars that does not go to benefit the people the money was raised for! They should be investigated and prosecuted for fraud!
Salvation Army or Samaritan’s Purse! Can not go wrong with these two charities.
Crooks are us yes
The 700 Club goes in and builds many homes. They have many volunters that come in and help so their money goes a long way. When our house burned down and we lost everything, we did’t hear from the Red Cross. Two churches helped us some.
