The BIGGEST CRIME OF THE CENTURY: BILKING THE KIND-HEARTED AND - TopicsExpress



          

The BIGGEST CRIME OF THE CENTURY: BILKING THE KIND-HEARTED AND THOSE IN NEED. Have you been taken in? Did you donate to any of these? If so - yes - you threw that money away. The 50 worst charities in America devote less than 4 percent of donations raised to direct cash aid. Some charities give even less. Over a decade, one diabetes charity raised nearly $14 million and gave about $10,000 to patients. Six spent nothing at all on direct cash aid. Even as they plead for financial support, operators at many of the 50 worst charities have lied to donors about where their money goes, taken multiple salaries, secretly paid themselves consulting fees or arranged fundraising contracts with friends. Some nonprofits are little more than fronts for fundraising companies, which bankroll their startup costs, lock them into exclusive contracts at exorbitant rates and even drive the charities into debt. Is this a crime? It should be. Know the crooks - and steer clear. ♥ ♥
