As long as the means don't 'mean' that we are taxed and any money is given freely then I'm OK with that. What I mean to say is that I don't feel that any laws are being broken here. As long as you are an informed donor then it is your choice. But please, as always, do your homework before giving money to any charity. I don't think anyone is trying to swindle any money. Many, many charities have backroom deals that, if known, might turn away prospective donors.
Try checking out this site:
www.charitynavigator.org They rank almost every US charity. Moffitt only gets two stars (out of 4) but that is not bad when looking at some other more well known charities. The United Way of Mass only gets 2 out of 4 and everyone seems to trust them blindly.
Bottom line is that the money is donations. Give if you want. If an event's proceeds are going to Moffitt then protest by not going to the event. If enough people do it they'd get the hint. Money talks!
