The difference ($400,000) represents 16,000 people who gave $25 for a box of food ... all of which went into her pocket. No thank you.

My wife and I make it a point to help locally and personally. 100% of what we do or donate goes to the needy party. There is no middleman. That's how I sleep.
I agree. The president of the Wounded Warriors Project is a retired military officer, but he makes more money from the charity than any military officer has ever made in history. The president of the Tunnel to Towers charity receives no compensation at all. Both charities have a mission to assist disabled veterans.
