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.

I never give to red Cross I have heard so I do for others
Nobody should donate to the Red Cross, and the Clintons did the same!!!!
The Red Cross has always been a scam!
The head of the Red Cross makes several million dollars a year. This is not right.
1.030 million a year
They also will , at least used to , deliver care packages in war zones and charge the family to send them and the soldier to receive them
I bet they turned you into a credit agency for not paying the bill
