CHARITY NAVIGATOR website

Merry Christmas in advance of the "Giving Season"

However all to many apparently worthwhile charities
are USED as a Cash-Cow or Slush-Fund for some.

(( One has to wonder WHY  no animal organizations
    are mentioned ??? )).


 
CHARITY NAVIGATOR website:  
You will be able to see below where Your money goes after it is donated.



SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT BEFORE YOU CONTRIBUTE:
The American Red Cross
President and CEO Marsha J. Evans'
salary for the year was $651,957 plus expenses
MARCH OF DIMES
It is now called the March of Dimes because
only a dime for every 1 dollar is given to the needy.
The United Way
President Brian Gallagher
receives a $375,000 base salary along with numerous expense benefits.
UNICEF
CEO Caryl M. Stern receives
$1,200,000 per year (100kpermonth) plus all expenses including a ROLLS ROYCE.
Less than 5 cents of your donated dollar goes to the cause.
GOODWILL
CEO and owner Mark Curran profits
$2.3 million a year.
Goodwill is a very catchy name for his business.
You donate to his business and then he sells the items for PROFIT.
He pays nothing for his products and pays his workers minimum wage! Nice Guy.
$0.00 goes to help anyone!

Stop giving to this man.

PUT YOUR MONEY WHERE IT WON'T GO TOWARDS HIGH SALARIES, BUT WILL BE USED TO BENEFIT THOSE APPLYING TO THE ORGANIZATIONS LISTED BELOW.

$13,000 per year (plus housing) for managing this $2 billion dollar organization.

Give to people directly...through your local community mental health, Social Services, or church... give clothing, food, utility vouchers, soup kitchens... help the people in your communities, your neighbors.... charity should always begin at home.... local veteran chapters...etc. But STOP GIVING TO HUGE CORPORATE CHARITIES....INCLUDING THE CANCER FOUNDATION all these monies do not go to help people nor to cure cancer... especially the cancer foundation...think about it...if they found a cure (and there are many natural cures for cancer) they would lose all their funds and extravagant lifestyle. Give directly to people that have cancer instead... Merry Christmas to all!!
