"RED CROSS EXPOSED AS A SCAM" - Hurricane Sandy and Hurricane Isaac

:dog1:

We were doing rescue during Sandy and the red Cross only took photos. They may have given out water but other then that just photos. We took a family out in a boat they were scared cold and felt horrible. We walked the boat a mile in chest deep water as they shivered. When we finally them to the help are red Cross is taking photos. The elderly women says please don't take any pictures of us. Red Cross guy snaps away and said lady this is history you need to understand that. Wanted to knock that asshole out but couldn't lose my job. Sad thing is that is the only photo I saw on TV. Guys pushing a little row boat and a big loader in the back ground

Totally True

I have worked for non-profits and most of the are TOTAL BS
Like the UNITED WAY total scam. Most people dont realize that the United Way goes to corporations and business and they get them to have events to raise money. The problem is that you can donate to any charity yourself but when you do it though the United Way your just paying their salaries.

So we have a LOT of industry here in Fort Smith, AR and the United Way has their hand in almost everyone of the factories these poor people who work at the factories barley make over minim and most are illegals. They are pressured into signing a piece of paper that they agree to the the United Way get a piece of their paycheck every week.

The director for the United Way here is a joke, he would always say he wished he could round up all the homeless and ship them somewhere else. REALLY!!! and he is the director of that charity.


Those people who still work there DONT CARE about anyone but their status in the community. They want to be put on a pedestal and have their picture in the paper to get accolades. I know I seen it all FIRST HAND

Worst of all the United Way has many different small nonprofit organizations that receive money and funds from the United Way and most of them are sincere. But the United Way has such a stronghold on them with funds that they (smaller nonprofits) are told what they can and cant do with the funds they receive, and most of them hate the United Way

DONT GIVE TO THE UNITED WAY GO TO THE CHARITY OF YOUR CHOICE AND DONATE YOURSELF THAT WAY IT KEEPS THE UNITED WAYS HANDS OFF OF IT.

The Red Cross and the United Way do Gods work on Earth. If they don't help you it is because God doesn't give a fuck about you.

Red Cross literally funnels its cash into 'Anti-Gun ' campaigns- I can't find the original article linking Execs and their profits funding gun control, but here is an article from 2012 covering the scammers that they truly are.

for truth.

An old business partner who spent his entire career in the Navy said----- NEVER donate to the Red Cross because 87 cents on EVERY dollar goes to "administration fees", AKA the salaries of the top dogs who run the organization.

Sounds like what happens with income tax.

Naggers at the top get it all.

My company hosts a UW fundraiser every year and collects big bucks for them. I agree with you, I'll find my own causes to support.

non-profits = paper pushing = referrals to other agencies = collect my salary

$166 million spent on HOMELESS SERVICES for 7,500 homeless

the key words are homeless services which means THE MONEY GOES TO NON-PROFITS who are supposed to help the homeless

what happens is these non-profits have free lunches/meals/meetings all the time and the workers collect their salaries

very little is done for the homeless

people are just giving referrals to other agencies. they are paper pushers

the churches all have gates and cages and they sit empty every night

^^^^^^^^above is in San Francisco

Glide Memorial Church. I get mail from them every week wanting $$$.

I've had multiple contacts with recipients of Red cross help. It's shocking how little they give to people in real need. Elderly earthquake victims who lost everything, and apartment dwellers who lost everything in a fire were given a voucher to a hotel for one night.

My dad was also in the navy in wwll and told me never to give to the red cross. It really makes you wonder why they are still in business, doesn't it? I also had my eyes open when i worked for a charity awhile back and found the top people stealing. I made them put the stuff back by shaming them but i quit after that. Its all really sad. Evil people abuse the system and not only do they enrich themselves but hurting, devastated victims suffer because of their ill gains. I tend to think that the theives have a very special sort of torture awaiting them in hell, but i'll leave that up to god.

You are sadly right. Those asses only showed up with a propane grill and nothing else near me. We had the fire department & cops setting up huge grilling locations and water stations for everyone to use. We also setup blanket and clothing spots too so everyone could stay warm.

Not one of those things, other than one grill, came from the Red Cross. During a post-Sandy meeting, they kept attempting to tell the state & local reps how much they did, it did not go over so well when that became public.

almost all "charity" organizations are about cashing lots of money while actually helping out very little..

imo whoever pays to any charity should know that their money is probably never gonna make it to where it was supposed to....

We have a local Wesley House whose director "borrowed" around 58k of funds from the organization. When she was caught the only thing that happened was that she had to pay the "loan" back. She is still the director and still receives her high salary.

I stopped bringing donations there when I found out that the workers go through everything and get the best stuff for themselves. I'm to the point now where I would just as soon just stop and give something to someone on the side of the road, at least I know they are actually receiving the donation.

Like any successful "non-profit" either the Red Cross or a any 501(c)(3), they start small with a specific purpose. If successful, they grow and can help more people. But then they get to a specific size and need professional managers who then turn it into a gravy train...

Red Cross
United Way
Salvation Arm
your Church
etc.

They all really turn into for-profit because they need to maintain their size, buildings, and payroll...

Thank creation that the "GREEN CROSS" has been exposed as truth.

Well, I volunteered with the Red Cross during a major American event. I was there aiding with emergency communications. The HAM Radio had been raided of parts. We were given coaxial from a well known electronics retail shack.

Years later I recounted my story in front of dozens of fire chiefs, emergency managers, and other emergency personnel. I discovered that Red Cross, like the United Way, Salvation Army, and Goodwill is top heavy with overpaid execs.

So, I can add some veracity to your tale. Furthermore, I applied for an emergency coordinator job with them. I have impeccable references, an education in emergency service, a degree in hard science, EMS and fire experience, bilingual, and a partridge in a pear tree!

The job went to a black female who had worked for a democratic state senator and was from a prominent family of local black school teachers. Moreover, there were two candidates who were true hero firefighters with better training, education, and experience than me!

Her experience in emergency management, preparedness, or communications was nil. She did have a degree from Langston in Sociology and Masters in Organizational Leadership.

Yep. The top level of emergency management is a mother fucking joke.

No offense but no shit!

Another big charity to stay away from is one of the larger "Humane" societies. Sorry can't remember which one, but most of their money is if offshore accounts and pension funds for their directors.

Give to you local shelter, at least you know what they do with your money.

BS.

Red Cross and United Way do the devils work.
They steal money. To even help anyone you have to pay these corporations millions.

You want to help people? Give it directly to the person you want to help.

Red Cross are just a bunch of devil crooks.
Tons of scandals, from tainted blood to stealing money.

As I said, a bunch of thieves. "Charities" are dens of thieves.

After Hurricane Katrina there were thousands of people homeless living on the land mass between Alabama and Louisiana, yet all you ever heard on the news was New Orleans, New Orleans, New Orleans.

My cousin's church in Orange Beach went over and cooked food for people who didn't have anything but the clothes on their backs. My old church took up a collection and bought baby bottles, formula, diapers and wipes and took down to those people.

Where were the big charities when these people needed them, nowhere in sight!!
