Who hasn’t felt the tug at your heart strings when the opportunity to help a child with cancer arises? If you gave money in good faith to ‘Children’s Cancer Fund of America’ the children got less than two cents of every dollar given…If that. CEO Rose Perkins pulls in millions of dollars a year, as do her ex husband and her son. Raising funds via cancer is a family business.
Ex husband James Reynolds Sr. is President of the Cancer Fund of America. As you’ll see, a few dollars get through his fingers in little ‘gifts’ like disposable diapers. Their son has his own business, James Reynolds is CEO The Breast Cancer Society – and who isn’t donating to a breast cancer society these days? As you can well guess…people with good intentions are donating, but the money isn’t going to help those with cancer, it is going to enrich the Reynolds clan. I’m not saying do not donate. What I am saying is that there are many places to donate, and they have similar sounding names. Do your homework first.
This is the tip of the iceberg. What follows is the first paragraph of a compelling in-depth report on the fifty worst scammers in the country. Now that the information is out, law enforcement or – in all likelihood, the IRS must bring these incomprehensibly greedy and immoral scammers down. The report begins with ‘Kids Wish Network, which operates in much the same way as the above-mentioned Reynolds clan and the 50 other remarkable organizations.
From CNN
The worst charity in America operates from a metal warehouse behind a gas station in Holiday, Florida.
Every year, Kids Wish Network raises millions of dollars in donations in the name of dying children and their families. Every year, it spends less than 3 cents on the dollar helping kids. Most of the rest gets diverted to enrich the charity’s operators and the for-profit companies Kids Wish hires to drum up donations.
In the past decade alone, Kids Wish has channeled nearly $110 million donated for sick children to its corporate solicitors. An additional $4.8 million has gone to pay the charity’s founder and his own consulting firms.
Here is the shocking full report on the top 50 low-down, filthy, scum-sucking, criminally greedy scammers.
