Charity scams

When should this sort of thing be considered outright illegal, and fraud?



America's worst charities




Quote:








Every year, Kids Wish Network raises millions of dollars in donations in the name of dying children and their families.

Every year, it spends less than 3 cents on the dollar helping kids.

Most of the rest gets diverted to enrich the charity's operators and the for-profit companies Kids Wish hires to drum up donations.

In the past decade alone, Kids Wish has channeled nearly $110 million donated for sick children to its corporate solicitors. An additional $4.8 million has gone to pay the charity's founder and his own consulting firms.

No charity in the nation has siphoned more money away from the needy over a longer period of time.



"Kids Wish Network", that sounds a lot like the Make a Wish Foundation. I bet they are counting on people confusing the two.



Seems like fraud that ought to be illegal to me.
