Remember last time the National Kidney Foundation donation, only 10% of the money went towards the needy people.

Well... I’m a unicef donor too, and according to their annual report almost 100% of our donation is going to their programme. USD4.88b donations received, and USD4.8b in programs. If you look back at previous years’ annual report, this is something consistent - more than 90% of your donations is going to the work.

Your donations is not only helping children in Malaysia, but across the world. If you only want to help children in Malaysia, then donate to a local charity. I’m fine with my donation with UNICEF, it’s the local charity which I’m donating to that I’m worried about.

No transparency on what programs that they are running, and they only promote other things on their facebook page. They were supposed to help underprivileged children to attend school, but no info to scrutinize how successful are their programmes. I’m only giving them until mid of 2018 to shape up before cutting them off.

if donate, don't ask how many % goes to the unfortunate one. Even a piece of biscuit reached their hands, there is still better than nothing. We know that nothing is free. Even work for free but how many can afford to buy their own tickets and fly to somewhere to help someone not met before?

The only reason for not donating is stopping their gov to take advantage on the charity organizations for taking care of their citizens, so that they can have more resources to spend on develop weapons or making the rich one become richer.

Even if u go directly to orphanage to make donation, not 100% of the money goes to the orphans. Half or even more sapu by caretakers. Songlaps everywhere. Leader songlap, citizen follow leader to songlap. I rather get someone cooks some good meals for all the orphans in the orphanage and make sure they are happy and stomach full. That way i also happy.

That's an old news, like in early 2000s. Hard to find the link as internet news was not that common then biggrin.gif

The people they hired to raise funds were foreigners, maybe pinoy...
