When I look there, however, I don't see that the Wounded Warrior Project is anywhere near the worst of the worst but professional fundraising has become a huge business. These folks are exempted from the national "Do not call" list and I do get a fair number of calls from charities. Most that I actually check out through Charity Navigator...if they're listed at all...don't fair that well. I think the worst ones that call me are those saying they are collecting for police organizations. Some of these are said to have less than 30% of collected funds actually going to aid those for which they are collecting. I don't give money over the phone or through mailings. All that does is generate more phone calls and unwanted mail. If one can and wants to give, pick out organizations you trust and give directly rather than through clearing houses. And, if you can, ask them to not spend any of your donation to solicit you for more.
You probably already heard about it but 2-executives were fired. That's suppose to be good news but then how did it get that bad. For a public outcry seeking funds to help recent veterans of wounds that sustained in recent combat or conflicts. The whole purpose was admirable but then got struck by so-called professionals that handle these now big league type charities. A true grass roots effort to helps veterans got used for personal gain or lavish parties that got out of hand as time went by. These used funds are now gone and tarnish future efforts and to make certain will impact its future operations. As the article linked here will point out, other charities have been more successful in using funds that support the wounded warrior and not the organization it represents comes from by percentage used for the internal office needs and rest to direct support to veterans. If you don't know by now, then at least question any caller or so-called charity how it uses its funds. Any decent charity usually is 10-15% for own use and the rest for the purpose it was intended for. Semper Fi -----Willy
It burns me up to know that it'll happen again in some other organization, hope not.
