However it seems like so many of these organizations get taken advantage of. No one is held accountable for how the money is spent. I feel like children are used too often as a political Pawn to get more money. I hope I'm wrong I hope the people in charge of this organization make sure that this money is spent wisely.

Tithe is 10%, and there’s literally no way to show how those monies are spent to actually help folks aside from those earning from the church. If the church had held their end of the bargain taxpayers wouldn’t be spending a thing, the problem is that they pay no taxes and fly private, live large and aside from preaching do nothing to help those in need. Look at Santa Rosa, more churches per capita and yet still folks are poor, underfed, overworked and have little to show at the end of the week for all they’ve done. Meanwhile there’s not a pastor in the region starving.. Take your issues up with the folks who promised that if they didn’t have to pay taxes they’d do the right thing with the monies, they ain’t. . . John, you feel the same about giving at church?

All of my kids are grown why would I do this? Well because although my husband and I worked our butts off to do what was needed to keep our kids on a certain path not all are afforded that. There are actually some trying their hardest to ensure their children grow to lead productive lives. Not everyone is the same just because their surroundings may seem the same. So if this is how to help then I will part with what I know I can't take with me when I die. Nor do I live that gotta have this that and the other. I felt the same way at first.

But this is just another way to squeeze a dime from folks. I go to work every day and work ( keyword, work) and the government just keeps taking. I work just to give my money away for others to reap the fruits of my labor. It will never stop, so people just keep agreeing to such as this. Please wake up. Well , no I don’t hate children.
