Yep - seen that first hand having indirectly worked with many. I don't know how people can be ok with that. I'm not. Quite shocking actually. Seems charities are becoming big businesses these days. Very publicly blowing their horn too. I think charity starts with caring. No need to shout it all loud. Just do it directly for someone who really can do with some help. One on one. No more no less.
