Children’s Cancer Fund of America of Powell, Tenn., a charity that assists families of children with cancer. The charity reported that six fundraising companies brought in $8.4 million in 2010. About $1.6 million of that total – or 19 cents of each dollar – went to the charity.
where did the 6.8 million dollars go "running costs?" fancy cars? beauty salons? CNN reported on their miss use of funds the BBB knows about them so when will they be shut down? my husband got suckered and we get calls AND mailings..!! I left a message to stop calling they are telemarketers and NOT a charity basically they have 3 offices or so that are run by family members who do NOTHING and robo calls run their company. I put unknown as call type because for some reason Charities are exempt from the no call lists this is NOT legit company that can not account for 6.8 million of YOUR$$$'s Go to Charity Watch they say a good charity will:"generally spend 75% or more of their budgets on programs, spend $25 or less to raise $100 in public support, do not hold excessive assets in reserve, and receive "open-book" status for disclosure of basic financial information and documents to CharityWatch. " as you can tell this caller KEEPS over 75% of donations!
hung up didn't leave message on my voicemail. this number has been calling my home for weeks.
Donation for childrens cancer fund.
