@classic, do you know for a fact that those named have NOT donated to the cause? Regardless, it's really up to each individual to make that decision.

 

Those who do decide to help should be applauded; those who don't should not be publicly shamed. It just seems so contrary to the whole idea of charity.

Tyler Perry's Quarter Million $$$ donation is interesting.

@sidsmom

 

Are you hoping to slam him for the charities he is choosing?

 

For the record, his donation will amount to a full one million.


Nope.


@sidsmom

 

Then perhaps you can hint at what you found interesting.


It's an interesting final destination for a donation of that size.

I think the entire world would agree with me since the 

final destination was recently in the news in an unflattering light.

Maybe Mr. Perry's influence will change the tides of Public Opinion.

I hope people know a lot of donations, big ones, come from those people.  Zuckerberg already donated a million, with more to come.  How about others like the Koch bros and their friends?  Also another billionaire I can think of, too.

Fyi the moderators deleted previous numerous posts and threads about Osteen. Bringing him up again probably isn't wise.

I hope the entire world would not agree with you, an attack like this is shameful.

 

Perry donated a quarter of a million to the church, not a person.  The church is specializing in providing diapers for babies and toddler victims of the flood.

 

Perry also donated another quarter of a million to a different pastor in Houston.  The remaining half million has yet to be designated.

 

I am not a fan of the first pastor mentioned, but I am a fan of diapers for babies.

That's good to know, but my point was about the list of who should do what.  It was a slam.

@Noel7   i also read that Walmart has a tiered gift of up to $20 million.  Texas has been a good market to a lot of companies.  it is good when it is recognized that it is a 2-way street.

@Noel7

Diapers are always needed.  

Our fitness club did a diaper-toiletry fund-drive this week. 

It's an item that doesn't expire & always needed in the shelters.
