Ice Bucket Challenge donations are nearing $100 MILLION. Where is that money going? Over 73% of all donations raised are going to fundraising, overhead, executive salaries, and external donations. Less than 27% is actually used for the purpose we donated for. According to the ECFA, a charitable watchdog, 27% of donations actually making it to the cause they are donated to is unacceptable. In fact, the ECFA wont deem a non-profit as a reliable charity unless at least 80% of donations make it to their intended projects. Employee salaries at the ALS Foundation are out-of-this-WORLD!
