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.

Rip-off org. Never donate to them
Red Cross, United Way and March of Dimes are as bad as the Clinton Foundation when it comes to helping others. They help themselves First.
The Red across has become a disgrace!
Actually I watched a few things about it they spent about 10% or what they raised in Haiti they built the public school on top of the hill where the tidal wave did not hit and I can’t remember what they did with the rest of it but 10% the actually spent there the other eight 90% parently who knows what they did with it probably put it in their pocket
