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 give to Samaritans Purse also. They are truly a nonprofit that uses the money to help those in need.
typical liberal ideas, take your money and keep it
Red Cross is the biggest fraud. My dad had plenty of stories about what they did to the soldiers during WW2.
Eyes wide open people
The bulk of the money 94% went to the liberal Clinton Foundation. Will that money ever be found? I sincerely hope that it is but I have strong doubts about that.
Vivian Davidson the Salvation Army seems to be ok as well as St.Judes
Disgusting and exactly what we have come to expect from the Red Cross. Look what they did to our WWII soldiers during combat service, sold them cigarettes that were given to them for the soldiers, made them pay for many toiletries, and other items that were donated specifically to be given to them, disgraceful!
Disgusting
More liberal thieves
I am embarrassed. My husband donated his life to the Red Cross after being a Firefighter.
