WHERE HAS ALL THE MILLIONS AND MILLIONS GONE EVERY YEAR ???
How much money (not services, not assistance but ...M.O.N.E.Y.) did last year's "qualified non-profits receive ?
Was there any money left over?
The good Citizens of the East Valley have seen so many....."CHARITY SCAMS"....in the news that they are leary of seeing their hard-earned donations going to outrageous salaries, vacations, retreats, bonuses, perks, cars and fancy homes once again.
I don't see why if a charity is on the up-and-up....like they say they are....that they can't put the.................."MONEY TO THE GROUP NAMES"....and put our minds at rest.................JUST SHOW US WHERE LAST YEAR'S ....$2,600,000.00....WENT ???
