I give people credit if they are trying to do something to help the underprivileged achieve a better life. I don't care if it's charity. I don't care if they get part of their money back. They're doing SOMETHING. They are trying to have a positive impact on underprivileged people.
In a previous post, I listed a number of black leaders who funded programs that provide scholarships and aim to get kids to reject drugs. I have no idea how successful any of these programs are. But at least there's an effort to try to affect change. They're trying to make an impact.
Give them credit for at least making an effort. You don't know how successful these programs have been...
