One that advertises on TV all the time with real tear jerker pictures of old destitute Jewish women is the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews (IFCJ0). There latest pitch is for Ukraine. Their CEO gives a very convincing sob story to raise funds. The last time I checked she was making $931,098.00 in salary and other benefits per year. Thatās just one person in this huge organization. It would take approximately 37,244 $25 donations just to pay her salary and benefits. Exploiting misery is big business. Of course this organizationās HQ is in Chicago on āWackerā driveā¦ says it all.
It's gotten so bad the NAZI (National Zionist) Jews are now producing musical propaganda pieces to program the masses to stop looking at them as the cause of so many evils in our world. THEY use the time honored self-victimization approach thinking people will be more sympathetic to their thievery and DMK (Death, Murder, Kill) machine. https://api.bitchute.com/video/IPoS0R9ear3E/
It would be interesting to learn how much of what is collected actually goes to those doing the struggling and what proportion of them are Christians or Jews.
BTW - predictive spelling has to be one of Satanās more successful torments.
Once You Donate Richard ,your on their Mailing list and the letters keep coming ,,,Thanks WW for a Heads -Up much appreciated ,,I do donate to the DAV veterans,
This shows the wisdom of Jesus when He commanded that charity donations be made privately. Sadly, modern society renders this almost impossible. Second best is getting a 'Do Not Share' privacy pledge from the charity. Even that gets dishonored, even when Jesus is explicitly cited) as new solicitations come flooding in! Collectively these cost more (including resource waste pollution bandwidth!) than the donations made.
Many non-profits are very much profit for the top administrators and it is a disgrace. Some churches, too for that matter.
I worked for a hospice in michigan that was found to have committed millions of dollars of Medicare fraud in 1995 (a year before I started working there). It was all in the news here in Michigan, especially the Detroit Press.
They were ordered to pay back the millions they stole.
What did they do? They started committing a different kind of Medicare fraud to the tune of even more millions ($10 million per year at a minimum) in order to pay back the millions they stole. That fraud involved ordering nurses to chart a type of intensive care for patients having been provided when it wasn't.
The CEO drove a new Red mercedes convertible and made over $500,000 a year at the time which is like a million now. Anyway, patients who were truly ill were denied simple medications that helped them but were given the "formulary" medication which was cheaper, as an example, but the CEO and others got paid top dollar.
Now you know one of the stories that involved whistleblowing reports to the State, the U.S. Attorneys Office, US OIG, etc
Hospices are one of the worst in terms of committing Medicare fraud. It's been in the news over and over but they always portray themselves as angelic leaders of the community. The staff may be dedicated, but many administrators act like skunks, actually worse. Just plain greedy rather than serving the mission it's all truly supposed to be about.
Corporate begging is so prolific it's now worse than getting approached by someone on the street asking for money. Everywhere one goes there is a corporate beggar asking if you'd like to support this cause or that cause. And every time I just shake my head no and keep walking. Because I know where most of that money is going and I'd be better off just handing it to some random street beggar because at least I know where that money will be spent. The fact that companies pulling down multi-billion dollar profits while asking the same customers who pay dearly for those profits for donations is beyond disgusting. It is shameful on every level. There should be a list of the worst non-profit offenders published each year so people will stop giving to those parasites. And if it is something medical related (i.e. heart, stroke, cancer, lukemia, etc.) giving your money to one of those organizations is akin to throwing it on a bonfire and watching it burn. Because that's exactly what they do to your hard earned money. They burn it. Here's a novel idea. Why not let the trillion dollar pharmaceutical industry give those organizations a part of their billion dollar profits. Since they are the very ones who contribute to so many of the health issues.
Very true. I've said this here before but it bears repeating. I used to work at two homeless shelters, one for single men and the other a "family" . The parent agency was spawned by the local catholic diocese. For every person working the programs in the field, they had a half dozen paper pushers at central office, all of whom made considerably more money than we did. United Way might be the largest charity organization of all. Years ago an investigation revealed that for every dollar donated to United Way, 95 cents of it went to office staff salaries and benefits while a nickel went to the poor and needy. Concomitantly, another investigation busted the CEO of United Way for having a protracted affair with two pretty teenaged sisters (I think he was over 60) spending lavishly on them with donation money for the privilege of plowing them. (fancy clothes, jewelry, 5 star restaurants & hotels, expensive vacations etc.) If I recall right, the slimebag was just wrist tapped for it. I don't know if the slut sisters were prosecuted, my guess is that charges against them were waived for their testimony. American justice (Just-us) in action.
the shelter i used to volunteer at (that i ended up living in when i lost my job briefly) -- the guy who ran it was some hood gangbanger type that was selling drugs to these men and women in the shelter. he'd show up wearing 50 grand worth of gold and diamonds and bring around his 20 year old, big fake tit, stripper blonde bimbo girlfriend and show her off to all the men there on his arm. he drove a bmw some days, other days a brand new sports car. i went up to him one day with the bible in hand, since he claims to be 'christian', and read some passages about ostentatious displays of wealth and thievery in the name of Christ etc and asked how he could be a 'pastor' and have his underlings pushing k2 and fentanyl to the guys in that program and he just looked at me like he wanted to kill me. a few days later, i am walking down the street and three big gangbanger hood type guys roll up on me and start threatening me, telling me to leave town, keep my mouth shut or else, etc. this was in broad daylight in the middle of a busy city street... i took my sig sauer out of my belly holster and put it under the lead guy's jaw and told him that i would blow his brains all over this street and not a single person would care if i did it. his two buddies ran off and left him standing there sweating. guy had probably a foot and 50lbs of muscle on me and was about to piss himself.
thank god he didn't realize my sig sauer was only a realistic pellet gun copy. lol
Yikes! That could have got nasty if the original bluffer would have called out the bluff from the bluffee! You might have to start packing for real, my buddy!
I appreciate your heart and raising your voice for those who need justice and for being a good human being in this confused, corrupted world. Thank you
Hi Wise Wolf, I agree that itās difficult to find a good charity. My heart is for children and I believe Troy Brewer Ministries is worth checking out. Everything he does goes to rescuing children. I know heās mortgaged his own home to do it a couple of times. Heās not getting rich. Through dedication to fighting human trafficking, Pastor Troy has spoken before Congress and CPAC at the International Summit Against Human Trafficking. Troy Brewer Ministries has rescued over 11,000 women and children and has funded over 51 rescue homes around the globe, providing pathways to freedom and hope through Jesus Christ. He doesnāt help a kid for a while. The ministry never leaves them.
My personal view is that charity should be down to the individual and the Church. Anyone or anything else, isn't charity, it's fraud, and should be viewed and treated as such, ie criminally. As an individual what form of charity you choose to donate, whether it's your time, productivity, or wealth is your business and privilege. The Charity is an integral part of Christianity and the Church has a long standing tradition and ability at such. As for the State getting involved, any money given as charity or aid is at the least misfeasance, and once organisations and institutions are involved misfeasance and criminal conspiracy.
You might also check out International Needs, 5570 32nd Ave., Hudsonville, MI 49426; 616-209-5420; www.internationalneeds.us. They sponsors kids all over the world so that they can get an education. I particularly like sponsoring little girls to keep them out of prostitution and forced marriages.

You are one of the millions of brainwashed suckers who believe the money from those walks is doing a single bit of good. It's not. It might make the participants feel good about themselves but that's as far as it goes. That whole system is simply just another form of self perpetuating theft. It has been going on for so long no one even bothers to question the validity of it all. If people really believed in those causes they would raise money and give it directly to those affected rather than some over-bloated self serving corporation that has spent years pissing away donor money while making it appear they are doing some good. News flash. There are already cures for all types of disease including all types of cancer. Letting the rubes know that though is bad for business as usual.
I will talk how I like, when I like and where I like. If someone is brainwashed and feeding into the Zionist narrative I will point that out. Because ultimately that is who controls those organizations and is benefitting financially from the mindless masses that continue to feed their theft. Here's a novel idea. Instead of supporting the bankers and their continued thievery why not simply hold a walk or marathon where the money is given directly to the people who need it instead of some bottomless pit corporation? The large percentage of these so called 'charitable' or 'philanthropic' organizations are nothing more than a cover to steal money from gullible albeit good-hearted people. If those corporations were to disappear from the face of the earth tomorrow people's lives might actually improve rather than being continuously stuck on their never ending hamster wheel where billions are spent and lives are no better than they were before.
I did see a stack the other day to buy a community hospital two more NICU beds, looked pretty legit. I think it was Virginia Cenedellaās stack, or possibly Hans Casteel? A couple of them gave it a mention, you might want to heck it out.
This is an excellent article and covers what I have wondered for years. I'm sorry to learn of St. Jude, as it's one of the charities that I've given to for years.
Is there a specific website, etc., that one can access to check out the legitimacy (or not), of charities in question, without having to look them up individually?
I couldn't agree with you more. Cars for Kids is a charity that is on TV, radio and online. I live in Vancouver BC and have been listening to this jingle for years. It's quite addicting.
Turns out this charity is a fund raiser for Jewish kids. It sends Jewish kids to Israel. It is a corporation out of California and not one single dime is spent in kids here. WTF is wrong with that picture?
They picked the worst singer out of the group to do the vocals; Maybe that's the appeal for those who would find that addictive! Fundraiser for Jewish kids going to Israel is something I did not know! It kinda makes sense now, though!
I've been trolling them all day and can't even get a bite; usually, by this time, I would have a pretty decent catch. I think they're finally taking me seriously and decided to take me out of ābottom-feederā status and demote me to āuseless pain in the ass, losersā! This slow progress is driving me nuts!!
A recent federal lawsuit claims the KarsKids ads are deceptive and accuses the charity of mail and wire fraud, and racketeering. The complaint describes the non-profit's approach as āa scheme to deceive unwitting donors into donating their vehicles for undisclosed and misrepresented purposes.ā It also calls it āfraudulent conduct.ā
Nearly 40% of Kars4Kids revenue has gone toward advertising, much of it to Google to ensure top search engine results, an expenditure considered far beyond the amount nonprofits should spend.
In 2024, Kars4Kids spent more money, $41.5 million, on advertising than it spent for its main charity, Oorah, which received $35.3 million. It also spent some $5.3 million on salaries, which do not include the eight high-level administrators who take home more than $100,000 each.
More than 95% of the cash raised through car-donations and other sources is funneled to a sister charity that uses most of its revenue to promote Jewish theology, with a large portion focused on adults including a Jewish dating retreat.
Since 2008, the first year for which records are available, Kars4Kids has collected more than 1.6 million vehicles with an estimated value of $955 million, according to tax records. Thatās an average value of just under $600 each.
Since 2009, three state government investigations have found that Kars4Kids had not properly informed would-be donors that they were contributing to a religious organization. The fundraising outfit serves customers in all 50 states.
All vehicles either go for scrap or to an auto reseller, but at least half wind up in a junkyard.

Fyi I'm a Catholic, so I'm biased.
You can check to see how much of your donation to various nonprofits goes to direct support on Charity Navigator. The downside is that some small, local nonprofits won't be listed. https://www.charitynavigator.org/?c_src=WGRANTSSEARCH&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=15854509868&gbraid=0AAAAAD_CQa7ptyyUo2WC-Dkfy87NizcTa&gclid=Cj0KCQjwteTUBhD4ARIsAEYjs3qZlle0yjeEJqNfficfSpbfwORUV9l8wCkyYEGkBsXcJ-voz0G3hOAaAuytEALw_wcB
This is a good resource. My husband wonāt give any money to a charity that doesnāt have a high score with CN.
However, I also like to give to small, local charities but you have to do a lot of research first.
so true about a lot of research - even volunteer firefighter funds get embezzled by volunteers and what not. so much corruption nowadays...
Its worse, they actively use the donations to work against them, have fancy dinners, travel around, etc.
