Where Our Donations Really Go

Opinion

 

A timely reminder before our generous spirits open our wallets at  Christmas  

THINK BEFORE YOU DONATE!

SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT BEFORE YOU MAKE CONTRIBUTIONS :   As you open your pockets to do a good thing and make yourself feel good, please keep the following facts in mind:

The
American Red Cross
President and CEOMarsha J.
Evans’

salary for the year was $651,957
plus expenses

 MARCH OF
DIMES
It is called the March of
Dimes because

only a dime for
every 1 dollar is given to the
needy .

along with numerous expense benefits.

ROYCE.

Less than 5
cents of your donated dollar goes to the
cause .

 GOODWILL 
CEO and owner Mark Curran
profits $2.3 million a year.
Goodwill is a
very catchy name for his business.

You donate to his business
and then he sells the items for
PROFIT.
He pays nothing
for his products and pays his workers minimum wage!
Nice Guy.
