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.

This is why I do not donate to them. Too many of these so called “non profits” do nothing but line their staffs pockets. Research these companies…. it will make your blood boil.
Red cross!!!!!??? I call BS on that.
Being run by the Clinton Foundation?
Greg Dodge I agree w/ you. However, the law is real and used by almost every charity. Sadly.
If you want more bang for your buck, donate to the Salvation Army.
