From your own data:
Kids Wish Network - $22 m to their cause
Cancer Fund of America - 11.4 m
Children's Wish Foundation International - 31.5 m
Firefighters Charitable Foundation - 9 m
International Union of Police Associations - 16.2 m
Breast Cancer Relief Foundation - 19.1 m
etc.
Did you look at what solicitation techniques were used?
Did you look at the costs of staffing a phone bank?
Did you look at the print and mailing charges of a direct mail solicitation?
Did you look at the response rates generated?
Did you look at any of the expenses versus any of the response rates?
And you have the gall to call these people liars?
The format of your whole list and your conclusions based on it are the big lie in this thread.
Yes, a big lie. Your willful failure to research the solicitations, how they work, how much they cost and what results can be expected is an outrageous insolence effrontery to good charitable work. And you call them liars!
