    Absolutely. Most non profits take a huge cut of donations so only a fraction make it to those that need help. UNICEF is always under fire and at one time, they estimated that like only 10% would make it to the needy. Every UNICEF tv spot, ad or spread in a magazine is paid for by donations. So is all the staff their hire. And they actually pay really well. Again, all taken from the donations.

    Most charities are just a business that doesn’t pay taxes and the execs all have cushy jobs.
