United Way is the biggest scam in charity outside the Clinton Foundation. They are just a middleman getting their 15% cut in exchange for some corporation getting a seal of approval. In the age of the internet there is no reason for the United Way to exist.

“United Way is the biggest scam in charity outside the Clinton Foundation. “

Way back as a lowly enlisted man we were ‘coerced’ to give to United Way.

And UW cuts fubds to organizations if you direct your funds to that organization. The lib orgs they fund will never be defunded.

Some donors give to the general fund, some target funding. Those who target ‘free up’ funds from the general fund that othereise would’ve gone to an org like SA.

Absolutely. And they support many organizations that conservatives find distasteful (especially Planned Parenthood). Supposedly you can direct your donation to your preferred recipients, but you can't be certain that will actually happen. Your money will do more if you donate directly.

The president of the United Way pulls in more than $1 million annually.
