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.

Have known for years, most money to red Cross never reached the people that need it. Most goes to CEO and such. Waste of money giving to red Cross.
Imagine there was any $$$$$ left
After they payed themselves…..

LIARy connect???
Raises half billion dollars and only six homes something is wrong
Crooks…plain & simple!
Where did the rest of the money go to. Never donate to the Red Cross they are crooks.
Sounds like the Red Cross is run and owned by the Clinton Foundation. The red cross is a monster money maker.
