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.

Where did the update their monies go?
Stopped years ago
Local Salvation Army and local charities
Has this been addressed? Not another cent should be given to the Red Cross until this is explained. We the people need to know ! Ok media Here ‘s your chance . Get us the goods on this, and tell the truth, no cover up. How does this go on?
Disgusting! Those homes must have gold inlay to cost that much!
Truth And Action and a limo and first class flights and accommodations !
Some charity
I don’t give to the Red Cross since I learned they line their pockets; I give to the Salvation Army and my local Food Bank
The Red Cross is a scumbag org. Period!
