re: Harvey Donation Tally By Donor

It's a lot harder to track where money gets spent in Haiti than a city like Houston

Where were all of these people 12 years ago?

Much more difficult to make donation to corrupt entities. Time has repeatedly shown the money will not be well spent.

Is that some type of donut company?

This is good, but why didn't any of these companies donate when BR flooded last year, or SC or Wva?

As bad as the floods in Baton Rouge were last year, Baton Rouge has a population of 230k and it didn't wipe out the whole city. If I remember, Taylor Swift donated $1M, there were some former LSU players now in the NFL who donated.

Many people from all over donated to different charities... So who knows how much of that was actually used for the actual cause.. But Harvey was much bigger than the BR flood. Like I said, the BR flood sucked and there are people who are still trying to recover, but it just wasn't as big of an event.

I am pretty sure a lot of people gave after Katrina.

This is just one of a bunch of articles about people donating after Katrina.

Ellen degerous is worth $400 million and gets 75 a year. She gave a whole 25k

I did a conversion of Michael Dell's contribution vs his worth compared to mine, and for me to give the same proportion of my savings away would be less than 45 dollars

Add Geiselle Automatics for $75,000

They just sold 500 SSA-E "God Bless Texas Special Edition" triggers for $150(normally $240)and every penny was used to purchase the Houston PD 2 boats for search and rescue plus dive equipment

Especially when the Clintons manage it

How in the hell do you donate a telethon???

You went on tv and asked others to donate money. Put up or shut up!
