GOODWILL CEO and owner Mark Curran profits $2.3 million a year.
Goodwill is a very catchy name for his business.
You donate to his business and then he sells the items for PROFIT.
He pays nothing for his products and pays his workers minimum wage! Nice Guy.

I'll be linking you when I get a moment. Busy this morning :)
Thank, oh Godfather of Blogging. You have graced me on this, my second day of rants. ~kisses ring~
And if you really want to give to the needy I have a Pay Pal account.
Red, thanks for that one. I try to slip a few bucks to good charities, especially this time of the year, and almost decided to go Galt this season. Screw it. Your list of worthy charities is very welcome. Thanks.
Tom on Guntalk radio show did a Veterans Day show yesterday. Said he invited Wounded Wariers to be on. They refused. Reason: the show was about GUNS. Screw them. You have a good list of Veteran organizations. Go there.

Done :)
I recall that the Red Cross did not give aid to the victims of 9/11 until pressured. UNICEF: UN. The UN is hopelessly corrupt (oil for food scandel, sex abuse scandels, failure to prevent the Rawandan Genocide). I cannot say I am surprised over Goodwill either.
Thanks for the list.
I have received this email before but never passed it on. I received it from my Brother from another Mother (my beloved Ex-Brother In-Law) on this "Veterans Day". He is a man I am proud to call my friend, regardless of my relationship with his sister. YES, we give each other a manly hug EVERYTIME we get the oportunity to be blessed in mutual company. Semper Fi, you ol' crotchity f**k, I will always consider it my pleasure to have known you. A prayer goes out to you and ALL who have sacrificed, May God always be on your side.
Excellent Post. Good information. Told you , you would be good at this! I joined and am honored. thanks the rat
God, y'all make me grin. Thank you, Devil Tongue, for the excellent info, and thanks you guys for the sweet compliments.
One more to add to the Do NOT list, the HSUS. Scam you into thinking that you are "helping the animals" and it's all BS.
Thanks for this list. Good vs evil.
Incredible. TY -55six
Is the ASPCA on that shit-list? I hope not...or Im a reject. Nice setup BTW!
I didn't bother with ASPCA or NAACP.
WOW! Great Post Angel. I've always wondered about this... why I'm so reluctant to "give" to charities. Thank you for sharing :-)
How about the NCCAP, the national council of cranky ass people.
I'll donate to that if you'll donate to ROBOT.
Redheaded Obsessive Bitches of Texas.
You two are almost starting to get funny. Almost.
:-P
Let us know when we get there. :-D
But I thought you were all sunshine and rainbows?
I AM DAMMIT.
How did that motorcycle sound again?
I made a vow to not ban anyone before wirecutter....
Ive been kicked out of worse places than this.
Don't know whether to be proud or insulted.
I have been banned for life from the Huffington post, along with my children and grand children.
Damn Man, I'd wear that as a badge of honor! I'd be putting that on my Christmas cards...
Crap...guess I'll shift that donation to our local 40 et 8.
That reminds me, one pre-Thanksgiving, handing out turkeys/groceries, my very senior good friend Paul had this Mexican in line come to him. Paul asks "How many in your family?" Mexican says "Nine kids." Paul asks him "What's their names?" Mexican; uh wha da bla. He ended up with dinner for two LOL. God I love that ol timer...still sharp as a whip!
