Forget about giving one cent to United Way!

Why? When you give a a buck directly to a charity< United Way doesn't eat 17 cents in fundraising costs off the top. source

The charities that give the most money to those intended are Catholic charities (95%) since the priests, nuns, monks and friars do what they do for the love of God.
Certainly they are provided for in food, lodging and their "uniform," but that is all. Hard for ANY other charity to compete with that.

The Red Cross, even the Veterans organizations, can't match that figure.

A comment from the United Way website:

“I have just learned that United Way will no longer give money, currently $100,000/year, to KY Scouting. Their reason, scouts forbid gays to serve in leadership roles. When I was working, my employer forced me to give to United Way despite their support to the world’s major abortion provider, Planned Parenthood. The left’s attack on scouting has nothing to do for gay’s rights, rather it is part of their agenda to destroy every vital segment of America! Look how they attack Christianity, the military, family and schools. I hope everyone stops giving to this political organization, the United Way.”
