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.

Sounds lke the Red Cross at it’s finest
They did the same in WW11 my dad told me.
This is disgraceful!
A lot of charities are filling their pockets and that’s why I don’t give to these especially the ones that work outside of the country because nobody keeps track of what their doing with the money! !!!!!!!
Shameful
Poverty is Big Business for Democrats. That’s why poverty will always exist.
These people which collect money to help , they help.themselves
Hillary and Bill Clinton did the same thing. The red Cross. Well I have no use. Military guys who need to come home in emergency, sure they give them the money but take it from their pay . I saw it happen I think it’s wrong and they will never get a dime from me. Also those at the top are living real well in the “red cross donations”
The criminal corruption and graft is unacceptable.
They did very well. If I give cash I give it to the person, never red cross united way and others
