Do You Donate To These Charities That Run Ads On TVs In The Evening Showing Suffering Children or Suffering Animals That Need Help?

Cause there is a very detailed article on a website called The Burning Platform about “Big Charity Scams” where that money goes. To executive salaries and huge amounts to employees. These charities are setting on billions of dollars of assets and still begging money off of kind-hearted people who are buying into it. It’s sickening and I already knew they were scams. When they use the word suffering they draw it out to get our sympathy.

I will never donate to any so called charity.

Investigating is a waste of effort. There are ways to not disclose anything. If it's not on the books, you can't investigate it.

What I do, when I am able to, is help out individuals or families directly. It's the only way to really donate 100%, without paying someone else salary.

Those commercials cost one heck of a lot of money BTW! Try to buy a commercial on any TV network sometime. Even if it's only a minute on a local TV station.
