It's the Salvation Army for us....I ring the bell for them and donate heavily throughout the year. They take the least for themselves (11%) and only spend 7% on marketing
When I was in the service and needed help to get home for a funeral the Salvation Army helped me. I went to the Red Cross for help first, they wouldn't help me even though I had donating pints of blood to them for years and was one of their certified Red Cross First Aid Instructors and a Water Safety Instructor. I've never given a dime to the Red Cross again. Take a look at home much they pay themselves...and they determine how much of what you contribute to a cause will actually go to that cause vs. be held for some other cause
