The Giving
I worry about the massive size of the charity-fund for the tsunami relief. What accountability is there? What checks that the money is properly spent (not largely wasted, misused or even misappropriated)?? I think these possibilities increase as the size of our charity increases.
Nice to know of some more direct way that we can help.
We heard yesterday that our national "mourning" and expressions of sympathy, in the absence of directly knowing some of those who have suffered loss, can be pretty meaningless in assuaging their grief. But that our "mourning" can be useful if it affects us! Good thought, I thought!!
Stan, Carol, what are the situations re tsunami relief funds in Canada & NZ?
