A EYE - OPENER -when you donate to the next Disaster

[JackinDe]

Does whatever you donate get to where you intended it to go?

Here's an Eye-Opener!
As you open your pockets for yet another natural disaster, keep these facts in mind:

Marsha J. Evans, President and CEO
of the American Red Cross... salary for year ending 06/30/03 was $651,957 plus expenses.


Brian Gallagher, President of the United Way receives a $375,000 base salary, plus numerous expense benefits.

The Salvation Army's Commissioner Todd Bassett receives a salary of only $13,000 per year (plus housing)
for managing this $2 billion dollar organization.

I dont know the answer to that either jack but definately interesting. I also wanted to post because no one post yet. I guess I could of just put a little up there an leave it at that but you should know me by now jack, gotta put my .02 cents in.

Due to the high cost of living now days, Miss Michelle, you should at least put in a dollar, instead of the .02 cents, & yes, I know you by now & value your opinion. Thanks.

My little country was recently hit by donation storm when a one top man of this National Kxxxxx Foundation was found to be spending the donation $$$ like water and even wanted to install a gold plated tap in his private office... He and some of his "staff" flew first class and behave like King/Queen... so sad, for those who are involved in the fund raising. They put in so much effort and volunteer freely only to see what happened behind the scene. Public who donated are ordinary salaried people and are not well-off...

That's really sad... I always wonder myself about where the money really goes..but my family and I are grateful for what we have recieved to help us out due to Katrina.. It's not much but every little bit feels like a whole lot.We lived in Biloxi Ms on the beach and was placed up here in Ellisville.. Fema has placed us in a low income apartment.. we drove down to the coast this past weekend to see my little brother in his concert and I tell you everything is still in piles.. My husband and i thought we would move back after things started to get picked back up - but there is nothing to go back to.. I pray the best for all of AL,Ms,and LA

CoolWhip thank God you guys are not hurt... so scary even just to read about what happened!

[CoolWhip]
