**SCAMMERS** pretending to be a charity...
Do not give to 'charities' who do active calling to random people. They are ineffectively ran and if you are LUCKY .99cents of every $1 of YOUR money is going toward paying for that NEW Mercedes they have to drive...
Seriously folks, these cats make a very GOOD living off YOUR HARD earned dollars!!!
excerpt from Consumer Reports article:
Give directly. If you're contacted by a professional fundraiser for a charity you want to support, hang up and give directly instead. Fundraisers often take 40 to 80 percent of the proceeds. In some cases, charities get nothing, or they can end up paying fundraisers more than they take in, leaving them with a loss.
Google 'charity ratings consumer reports' for the full piece
Thanks for reading and GIVE SMART!
