    Default Haitians are urging people not to give money to American Red Cross

    [quote]Trust in organisation badly shaken by reports donations were squandered

    As the death count after Hurricane Matthew approaches 900 and reports of deadly cholera outbreaks begin to surface, Haitians have sent out desperate pleas for help.

    Government officials estimate at least 350,000 people needed assistance after the devastating storm.

    Yet accompanying many requests for aid comes a warning

    Good to know.

    I guess I will just donate to the clinton foundation instead, I hear they have done a lot of great work in Haiti!

    Non-profits are the biggest scams in the business world. Don't pay taxes. Pocket half the donations in the form of salaries. Did you know the NFL was a non-profit organization until last year? Just shows you how backwards the system is.

    Haitian Goverment takes the money for themselves


    It's not worth helping a country that doesn't want to help its own people.

    Sounds like places of worship. Especially those mega churches like Joel Olsteen.

    Poor Haiti, always getting taken advantage of. When they sent the UN there to protect the people from civil unrest, the communities they patrolled were alarmed at the sheer amount of light skinned babies being born to young mothers after they left.

    That's just awful.


    I will remember this video next time I'm having a bad day.


    Always avoid the Red Cross. Always.


    Katrina taught us this lesson.
