Nonprofit Imperative : Nonprofit Fraud: Is the Salvation Army Worthy of Our Contributions?

Ripoff Report | The Salvation Army Complaint Review Alexandria, Virginia: 89639

I had the same thought ... Why would you? There is no way they would get a gold ring from me.

If it truly was Mom's last wish, then bravo to them for fulfilling that wish.

Every non-profit has expenses that are paid for by donations. That is just how they survive,

Also, every organization that large is liable to have opportunists among it's ranks.

I personally don't support the Salvation Army because they have a history of discrimination that truly bothers me.
