Re: Do you think its worth paying the charities ?
I question their role in today’s world , i mean the charity organizations …
The other day i saw save a child charity sending us through a note book and fridge magnets through the post .. I hated them at that moment , why do they have to act all glamorous , they could have helped the kids in the world with the money rather then enticing people who are paying to the charity !!!
Then my husband found out from one of the charities that they keep a certain percentage from the total funds they have raised then they forward them to the charity in the other country , who then again keeps their share and passed on to a smaller charity who then again keeps their share … if you paid £10 to the charity only £2 will reach the deserving , that too we cant be too sure about !!! all this in the name of paying the salaries of the people working at the charities and their expenses !!!
Isnt it better to actual give charity directly to the sources we know truly deserve it and will be able to use every penny to their rightful needs ..
What say ?
Good morning Ms Biryani,
Being from pakistan its really easy to find people who need help. Or as you say direct sources.
