Hi Michael and all,

I am also aware many organizations use a huge percentage of the money
they collect for advertising and administration - some up to over 90%!
Michael, thanks for pointing this out!! People should be made aware that
some of the organizations (some that Michael pointed out) waste 90% and
only apply 10% to where it is needed.
The Samaritan's Purse only has 10% administration fee and 90% goes to
where it is suppose to go. They send out their annual statements showing
what they took in and where the money went and what percentage. They are
for the most part VERY efficient. Anyone wanting to donate to this
excellent organization can do so by sending dollars to:
Samaritan's Purse
P.O. Box 3000
Boone , NC 28607-3000
Before many of the other organizations were even down there the
Samaritan's Purse People were down there with relief!!! I might add that
this has a tie in to the Billy Graham organization. I was planning to
put some eBay auctions up selling meteorites and listing the Samaritan's
Purse as the place the money would be sent to, as I believe it will do
the most good. All my best!
