No reply. My husband laughed at me when I told him I gave money to the United Way but when I told him that they promised that 100% would go to the victims of the attack, he agreed that sounded good. So now I feel like a fool.

At least I didn't donate to the Red Cross, but he did give blood at a Red Cross donor site. I can't donate blood due to the medication I take. I wonder if the blood he donated was among the blood that was thrown away because they collected too much?

This is very disturbing. The cynicism these organizations must feel is astonishing.

Your suggestion of a class action suit intrigues me. In light of the fact that charities all over the country, and probably all over the world, are suffering due to the economic slow-down, I would rather donate money to people in dire straits than to arts groups, no matter how worthy.

I am going to demand a refund and give the money to another charity.
