Okay....all in one place for those who don't want to go find it. Also to clear it up so that the bad stuff isn't what shows up in a google search.
Don Newton, who found Sylar...who spent hours upon hours searching for Sylar when really nobody else did...has looked into the allegations that the SaraCares foundation is scamming everyone.
Don knows the person who owns the bar that was supposed to host the fundraiser this weekend.
Don talked to the funeral home about it.
Don talked to a Detective about it.
HE feels they are simply trying to help and are legitimate.
Personally, I would believe Don over anyone else on there any day...though I still wouldn't donate because there is no NEED for it. I just think that SaraCares deserves to have it clarified that they are not a fraud.
I do not believe that this SaraCares foundation is trying to scam anyone. They just do this in memory of their daughter, they don't have a website or anything even.
Anna claims they did try to check with Emmett's family but got a very hateful "Leave us the %$#@$% alone" in response.
However, a member of their community said Emmett's mother confirmed that SaraCares did organize a fundraiser for Emmett and they got every dime from it. This person did thank them for organizing a fundraiser for Emmett as well as say Emmett's family did NOT want to be contacted.
If that's not enough the Mayor of their town also spoke out. He said he knows these people and also vouched for them.
Anna and Charity appear to have both acknowledged that they were WRONG and that SaraCares IS legitimate. That they jumped to conclusions.
I hope that clarifies that...and I hope this doesn't damage the good that they wanted to do. Like I said before...accepting the $5,000 grant or free funeral sure seems like it would have been easier than all of this. :waitasec:
That note from the Mayor is on this page in response to "Message to SaraCares" which is below one about DNA and above another about SaraCares...it has 10 replies right now and is from Sept 22. The one about Emmett is right above that one. http://www.facebook.com/sylarnewton
All other information above is on this facebook or the other facebook for Sylar here: http://www.facebook.com/sylernewton
