Hello Ken,
Personally I don't have anything AGAINST the Red Cross... it's just that I
think the Salvation Army is so much better. Here is an e-mail that I sent
to a lot of people...
In the light of Katrina and the many calls for donations, please consider
the following:
WHEN YOU DONATE TO A CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION
WHERE DO YOU WANT THE MAJORITY OF YOUR DONATION MONEY TO GO:
A. THE VICTIMES OF A DISASTER? OR
B. THE ADMINISTRATIVE COSTS OF THE CHARITABLE ORGANIZTION?
If you chose A, PLEASE read the following article
http://www.mercola.com/2005/jan/5/tsunami.htm
where you will learn that...
1) The C.E.O. of the Salvation Army earns ONLY $18,000 per year!!!
(compare that to the following information on the American Red Cross)
http://charityreports.give.org/Public/Report.aspx?CharityID=679
Chief Executive Officer: Marsha Johnson Evans , President and Chief
Executive Officer
Compensation*: $468,599
Chair of the Board: Bonnie McElveen-Hunter
Chair's Profession / Business Affiliation: President, Pace Communications

*July 1, 2003 - June 30, 2004; compensation includes annual salary
and, if applicable, benefit plans, expense accounts, and other allowances.
2) Eighty-four cents of every dollar goes directly toward program services.
3) Peter Drucker analyzed over 600,000 charities and determined that by far
the Salvation Army is the most effective organization.
