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.

red cross is a huge racket
The RED CROSS LOANS, does not give, the money and probably charges interest on the loans of the Money YOU donated to help. DAMN the Red Cross…
YOU CANNOT OPERATE ANYTHING IN A PROPER MANNER ONCE A BAD OPERATOR STEPS IN. I’VE READ SOME BAD NEWS ON THEM ALSO PERTAINING TO THEIR BLOOD DRIVES. THE ARTICLE STATED THAT THEY ARE SELLING MORE BLOOD THAN THEY’RE ACTUALLY DONATING FOR SCIENTIFIC ILLEGAL PURPOSES IN STEALING PEOPLES’ DNA AND FOR OTHER FAR OUT GROTESQUE EXPERIMENTS. THEY’RE ALSO AFFILIATED WITH SOROS AND COMPANY, THEREFORE I NEED NOT SAY NO MORE.
Will not donate to Red Cross
I won’t give to red Cross. If you have funds to give, give personally. Only a very small percentage of finds collected go where they should, balance is to the big dogs who beg for the funds
She really screwed those in Haiti
Red cross has long been corrupt and greedy
I recently had a temporary position at our local American Red Cross– myself and another lady were hired specifically to help facilitate their move to a new- much smaller location. The amount of stuff they just gave or threw away is staggering. They are getting all NEW furniture and just gave all the old furniture away to other charities– really nice wood office furniture, chairs, filing cabinets. We had one office filled with computer components that were sent to be destroyed– I understand the hard-drives need to be destroyed because of confidential information– but perfectly fine keyboards, monitors, etc… were sent also. All kinds of disaster supplies were put in the dumpster simply because they didn’t have the time nor inclination to sterilize stuff– temporary cots, bedding, pillows etc… All tossed away! They had a 3 bay garage that was mostly disaster supplies but it was obvious that NOBODY had done any inventory in about 10 years or more :O
fraud, corruption!
So where is all the money
