Children in Need
Help
Whats your thoughts on this ... people sending money and most of it goes abroad when our county is in a mess x give the other country say 10% n then give the rest to our charities .... look after pensioners more ... make sure the kids in care are being treated right .. ex serice men not living on streets etc etc sorry if people disagree with me i dont want a huge debate just an answer n opinion x
Bit of a blanket answer but I believe that people who have more have a moral obligation to give to people who have less - in whatever capacity or whatever location. I'm not sure I necessarily categorise myself in the first category (relatively!) but we do try and do our best. I prefer supporting smaller charities with less overheads and less admin costs.
I go along with that jo. I hate that so much is sent to countries that have space programmes etc, corrupt leaders where aid finds its way to their private jets and lifestyle and I hate that a huge percentage of the donations go to admin and fat salaries.
I do not go without, nor am I well off but at Xmas i do give to the homeless where they feed and look after them over xmas. Usually it is the Salvation Army as I trust them to administer the funds properly.
