Why ChildFund Doesn’t Deserve Your Money

Thanks for giving me the useful information. I think I need it. Thank you

These people are common thieves, they belong in prison, DO NOT give them your money

I can’t get past the sad looking, but healthy looking children in these commercials. Some of them look as though they haven’t had a bath in months. Other than that, I see nothing seriously wrong with any of them. I think sally and alan might just be “pulling our leg.”

Stupidest and most gutless article ever written, hands down!

Childfund has always held the stance that they aren’t interested in being ‘Christian in teaching’ but rather, uphold the positive christian values taught by the bible, such as helping the poor. As there was no other name for it during its initial formation, that has always stuck until the name change in 2009 now that those value are universal and are found among all beliefs across the board. Suffice to say that the bible isnt a purely error free in its virtues, they have chosen the correct ones for their mission. As a non religious person, I found that admirable and have proudly supported the organization with that firmly in the forefront of my mind. Learning the bible is a purely individualist choice and they respect that, they don’t force it on communities and people who have beliefs that uphold the same positive virtues that Childfund do. Childfund also have one of the lowest fee to donation ratio out of all charities, most work on close to 40-50%. Christian groups who object to Childfunds practises because they dont actually “preach the bible” need to pull their heads out of the sand and accept the positions & beliefs of the greater world community rather than uphold their blinkered and short-sighted views of life.

birthcontrol

With the amount of money they spend on their lengthy commercials it’s obvious more money goes to the organization than makes it to the children.
I would suggest they use any donations they get to sterilize the people causing this problem by having more children than they can support..

Another reason would be the extreme amounts that they are paid. This isn’t a charity, people are making profit here.

The President of this farce made a poultry $259,484 in pay. Seems like a nice gig to have. That person sure isn’t looking too charitable, and that’s enough for me to decide this is a scam.
The ‘insinuated’ cause is a worthy one hence why people working for this fraud are making bank, tugging at the heart strings of America.

I feel sorry for the children, but if you cannot afford yourself then don’t have children. What must be done is birth control education to stop the overpopulation of sick hungry children. And most of what these charities do is use the donated money to distribute bibles to those people. What the F*** are they going to do with those eat them. WHAT THEY NEED IS FOOD AND CLOTHING, not a worthless pile of lies on paper.
Stop donating to these crooks, do not fall for their academy award performances.

a fool and his money is soon parted!

What sad is if a child survives it ends up having 10 or kids for the next generation of Americans to “save”.

As a non profit their expenditures are required by law to be publicly available (or they lose nonprofit status.) Second, you cannot gift $1000. Upper limits would be $100 tops, oh, and the fee? $3.50USD flat (source: first hand experience) Third, the Gen Con fiasco was more about the large donation being misinterpreted as representing CCF as a benefactor to the convention, and, in the confusion Gen Con switched charities. By the time the information came out, it was too late to appropriate the funds to CCF. Fourth, going off of their publicly available annual financial reports they spend more of their income on the children and development of their communities by percentage than any charity I’ve ever investigated. If you want a real shocker, check out PETA. The author of this article clearly has done little to no real investigation, or they did and simply chose to lie. “Wake up America” indeed. Educate oneself before believing what you read on the interwebs.

Has anyone else ever seen “Ellen” on one of the commercials on an episode of Law & Order? Strike me down if I am wrong but I believe that “Ellen” is a portrayal of a child who is suffering. I swear I have seen her on SVU.

10 cents of every dollar actually goes to food etc..the rest goes to the people who started this buisness,and that’s what it is,a buisness.They couldn’t give a shit about starving children because if they did they wouldn’t have people making six figure pay cheques working for these organisatios. the first people to give should be the people at the top of the organisations by taking massive pay cuts and actually giving the money to the hungry.de-salination plants and pipelines for the water is what they should be giving so crops can be grown etc..but no that would be too easy and of course if these 3rd world countries ever stood on their own two feet the caring buisness’s (sarcasm) would be out on their ass without a job.

This is a pretty sad site…..people are pretty nasty and into themselves. No one wants to help anymore. I sure hope there never comes a time when anyone from here needs help. As for the 20% they may or may not take off the top, don’t you think it takes money to drive trucks, order food,…etc..etc..etc??? And I would much rather know at least I am giving someone a chance at life, Be it a small amount, is better than none. And BTW……. JUST WHO ACCORDING TO YOU…. ARE THE FOOLS THAT ARE SUPPORTING THOSE ANIMALS ON TV???????? AND WHY SHOULD ANIMALS BE ALLOWED TO BE HELPED???? AND NOT HUMAN BEINGS?

HAVE THEIR OWN COUNTRY’S GOVERNMENT HELP & SUPPORT THEIR OWN PEOPLE !!!!! THEIR COUNTRY IS SCAMMING OTHER COUNTRIES ,,, IN A GET RICH GET MORE MONEY SCHEME !!!!! ,& SULTY STRUTHERS ,,, IS A DUMB ASS CON ARTIST !!!!!! AND SO ARE HER COHORTS !!!!!!!!
