I'm not against donating to charities - on the contrary! But why has it always to be in the wake of a disaster? Consider this: http://tinyurl.com/y8ztljm
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean but I think many people do give regularly on the quiet. I read the article you linked to, and it has some valid points. But I feel that, on this occasion, the sheer scale of this disaster completely outweighs those points.
ReplyDeleteYes, and to clarify, I'm not saying "don't donate"! Everyone should give as much as they can to all charities and organizations involved; the point is that those donations should be unconditional and not earmarked as for "Haiti". It's up to the organizations to decide where and how to spend the money. And I'm sure they will do their best for Haiti.
