Charities in many cases are actually for-profit businesses that use gimmickry to get touchy, feel good non-profit status and to lure donations.
There was a 'Charity' in our area that took in millions of dollars a year that was sold as 'for the children' and as I recall a local news investigation reported ten cents of every dollar was all that found it's way to the children. 90% of the proceeds went to the cost of doing business, a large portion of which had the hierarchy living extremely large in Mission Hills, KS and Loch Loyd.
