American Red Cross Relief Fund
 

The Red Cross is the last organization I'd donate money too.

I have 2 friends who work there doing pretty much nothing but making $100k a year. 90% of monies donated go to keeping the organization going, some of what's left over goes to helping people.

Didn't the Red Cross construct 2 new business centers from proceeds donated during 9/11 or another catastrophe?

Would never donate to them....:2 cents:

I'm sure they accomplish something worthwhile with some of the money. They do have to keep up appearances.

Here is what I just dug up. Trying to find the one article I was mentioning ;)

They do provide benefits for same sex partners of their employees.

it's important to exercise due diligence before making a donation to any organisation
