Funny that because I always thought that was exactly what the charity's role was.
I used to have a dim view of people who wouldn't give to charities, saying that none of it ever got to the people you thought you were helping. I thought they were just using that as an excuse to be stingy but the more I learn about all the "fat cats" and the lifestyles they lead the less likely I am to want to give to any charity in future.
Do any of you know anything about "Clarity"? They sell stuff and it's suppposed to help the blind. I usually buy something but I think I'll think twice in future. For all I know they could be as bad as the rest.
