A timely reminder before the Holidays and our generous spirits open up our wallets… How many ways can you spell
 

G R E E D? 

THINK BEFORE YOU DONATE!


SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT BEFORE YOU MAKE CONTRIBUTIONS: As you open your pockets to do a good thing and make yourself feel good, please keep the following facts in mind:

THE AMERICAN RED CROSS
President and CEO Marsha J. Evans' salary for the year was $651,957 plus expenses.

MARCH OF DIMES
It is called the March of Dimes because only a dime for every 1 dollar is given to the needy.

THE UNITED WAY
President Brian Gallagher receives a $375,000 base salary along with numerous expense benefits.

UNICEFCEO 
Caryl M. Stern receives $1,200,000 per year (100k per month) plus all expenses including a ROLLS ROYCE. Less than 5 cents of your donated dollar goes to the cause.

GOODWILL 
CEO and owner Mark Curran profits $2.3 million a year. Goodwill is a very catchy name for his business. You donate to his business and then he sells the items for PROFIT.He pays nothing for his products and pays his workers minimum wage! Nice Guy. $0.00 goes to help anyone! Stop giving to this man.


Instead, give it to ANY OF THE FOLLOWING:

GO "GREEN" AND PUT YOUR MONEY WHERE IT WILL DO SOME GOOD:

THE SALVATION ARMY
Commissioner, Todd Bassett receives a small salary of only $13,000 per year(plus housing) for managing this $2 billion dollar organization. 96 percent of donated dollars go to the cause.

National Commander receives a $0.00 zero salary. 
Your donations go to help Veterans and their families and youth!

THE VETERANS OF FOREIGN WARS

THE DISABLED AMERICAN VETERANS

THE MILITARY ORDER OF PURPLE HEARTS
National Commander receives a $0.00 zero salary. Your donations go to help Veterans and their families and youth!

THE VIETNAM VETERANS ASSOCIATION
National Commander receives a $0.00 zero salary. Your donations go to help Veterans and their families and youth!

MAKE A WISH: 
For children's last wishes. 100% goes to funding trips or special wishes for a dying child.

ST. JUDE RESEARCH HOSPITAL
100% goes towards funding and helping Children with Cancer who have no insurance and cannot afford to pay.

RONALD MCDONALD HOUSES 
All monies go to running the houses for parents who have critically ill Children in the hospital.
100% goes to housing, and feeding the families.

What about Wounded Warriors Project? How do they rate? I've been donating to them. Is there a better Veterans asso. to donate to? Also the 100 Club of Houston?

I have been donating to Wounded Warriors Project as well, but I'm starting to be concerned about the size of their advertising costs on several news stations, Does Fox News run the ads for them at a greatly reduced fee?
