Not yet tired
Just baked some cookies and waiting for them to cool.
Just showered and waiting for hair to dry.
And since I'm quite awake... sigh, might as well talk about the new hot topic in town.
This recent scandal regarding a certain "charity" organisation incurred wrath in me.
And also a sense of triumph. To a certain extent. FINALLY people could see for themselves, that this organisation does not need money. NO! Stop milking money and sympathy! But there are actually some kind and naive souls who claim that the skyhigh salary of executives/misleading public/elusive handling of funds and donating are 2 separate issues??!! So that silly fellow is willing to donate, not knowing where the money will go to? The fact is that the money is enough to last 3 decades when properly used. They can wait another 10 years before I'll consider to donate. POOF!
And patients shouldn't worry that donations don't come in. Some people, even patients fear that they won't get support.. but how.. how could that happen? With so much reserves?? Unless some sly figures in the organisation lose the money in some major MAJOR robbery. *GasP!*
OH YES, we have to consider inflation, new equpiment, more patients, oh and rising OIL prices yadda yadda yaddaa.. they have LOTS of considerations and commitments you know?! Even if all those are counted into the total expenditure, Enough is ENOUGH. Talk to my hand for the next 10 years, ABC Organistation.
I've also heard appalling and disgusting stories which revealed that they threaten not to subsidise the patients if they refused to film those pitiful footages. (Shown on TV to appeal to donors)
I've also heard that someone's Mum is suffering because there are NO VACANCIES for her treatment.
Well. THought they have room for a few thousand patients? OpPs! An oversight. Minus 1000 please. Brainstorming how to raise funds probably cause them to neglect the insignificant detail, like the number of patients.
Oh, and heard from one of ABC's staff, a certain very wealthy executive knows all the patients by name. Hmm. Hasn't he stopped to wonder where the supposed 1000 more patients went? Perhaps he has forgotten to visit them? Silly him! *giggles*
WELL.
I don't know whether to laugh or to cry. To be angry or sad?
Maybe a mixture of all those.
I seriously think some people are so THICK in the head.
Yet they are just trying to be kind. But is that kindness misplaced? Abused? Manipulated?
Something should really be done. We are not making a big fuss.
That huge sum of money is not "almond". (I can't afford to hire a lawyer.. oooh)
Not to many people who have been faithfully donating.
That brings up another issue.
Are they appealing to greed?
Enticing people to donate by offering hefty rewards?
I myself wondered, if i were the one to have won the cash prize, would i donate EVERY single cent of the money i won? Afterall, i ONLY have the patients in mind. I wouldn't be donating for the prizes, would I?
HA HA.
For now, I'm only grateful that I stopped donating 2 years ago.
Don't know what to feel.
*PLOP*
Just my heart sighing.
