Reading about fraud is always upsetting, but reading about charity fraud is downright infuriating.
When the already-impoverished nation of Haiti was struck by a devastating earthquake in 2010, people around the world opened their checkbooks to donate money to the reconstruction of the country. Among the recipients of these generous donations was the Red Cross, who pledged to help the people of Haiti get back on their feet with the millions of dollars given to them.
Yet five years after launching LAMIKA, a project named after a Creole acronym for “A Better Life In My Neighborhood” and meant to build hundreds of homes in Port-Au-Prince, only six homes have been built across the entire country, forcing citizens to continue dwelling in shacks without water, electricity or basic sanitation and regular flooding. In short, the Red Cross has delivered far less than it promised not just to it’s donors, but to the people it claimed it would help as well.

Never give them money, ever.
We have a lot of poor peolple around our houses. We must help them. Not those are far away.
Must have been some big houses
I will never give them another million dollars as long as i live lol.
they could have built home for between 10 and 25 grand each and built a huge community, hell evven could build appartments, this is why many people do not give to charity . they are shown poor starving kids and begged to give then the money ends up linning the pockets of rich people
No corruption there, right?
DONT. EVEN ASK WHERE THE MONEY WENT!!

I’ve never sent red cross a dime. My dad, a marine in WW11, told me when they went somewhere where red cross was, they were SELLING coffee and donuts to the troops. He HATED red cross.
