I am all for charities and what they offer, Over the years I have volountered and helped out at 3 different ones.
Some of the charites pull on the heart strings. Blind dogs etc
Some adds are getting out of hand (My personal oppinion)
People offer to help for free, people helping the RNLI and local Fire Services make thier selves avalable 24/7 and risk thier own lives in the process.
But what gets to me is them asking for specific ammounts each month, some offer feedback from the children and post cards about how the animals are doing. Sorry, Spend all the money looking after them instead. If I give money I prefer to pay what I want and when I want but want it to go to the ones that the charity is actually for.
When you hear some of the CEO's are getting upwards of £150K P.A. thats a heck of a lot of monthly donations before donations get to the intended.
When I was 16 there was an article in the paper that 83% of donations were towards "Overheards" at Dr Banardoes.
