Charities for Veterans

First Giving takes a 7% cut of the donation before it gets to the charity.
While on the subject of charities for veterans, another post from TS worth reading is:
Study Faults Charities for Veterans

Unbelievable what a rip off so many of the charities are, even some of the big named ones that you just assume are worthy of donations.

If anyone in the know could provide an update on the MILITARY ORDER OF THE PURPLE HEART it would be great to know if anything has changed.
