If it is not listed on Charity Navigator, I do not trust the charity.

Well, I'm involved with the Fallen and Wounded Soldiers Fund - a Michigan based operation that is totally run by volunteers - there are no salaries paid - ZERO. Last year almost a half a million dollars was given to needy Michigan vets. Around 96% of all monies raised are given to needy vets and their families. The rest is used for promotional services.

Its not recognized by the Charity Navigator Website !

I highly recommend the Charity Navigator Website.  It gives all the
important financial and performance details about major charities.  If
it is not listed on Charity Navigator, I do not trust the charity.

You have to be really greedy to get caught running this kind of scam,
charities are seldom looked into, and can simply eat up a majority of the
money collected in overhead and still be considered legitimate.

The sham cancer struck cancer charities.
It's been populating all major news channels:

None of those four seem to be related to what PDML donates to (From what I
know, Mark did his homework on that part).

Be vigilant!
