OH-BOY!.......
A couple of days ago I was complaining about the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation donation collections and how less than 10% of the monies actually makes it to research....
Then I see this on CNN....

QuoteCNN) -- The worst charity in America operates from a metal warehouse behind a gas station in Holiday, Florida.
Every year, Kids Wish Network raises millions of dollars in donations in the name of dying children and their families.
Every year, it spends less than 3 cents on the dollar helping kids.(end of quote)
This is not intended as a country to country comparison, because if it's happening there, it's happening here.
But how does this happen? Where is the government legislation in all of this.....:furious:
Part of the blames lies with people who donate without investigating. More blames lies with the agencies who are supposed to monitor the charities. Some of the reasons for the above is that people have developed a lackadasical attitude toward life/work in general. As long as they receive a paycheck, doesn't matter what others do.
I wonder where CayleesFund would have ranked? It was so low on the totem pole that noone really cares. What's a mere $600,000 when billions are being mispent.
