Add Samaritan’s Purse to that. They helped our family during the March 17th tornado here in Alabama.



Samaritan’s Purse is the real deal.

They stayed to help rebuild Panama City and surrounding area long after everyone else had left.

They were headquartered in what was left of our church, so I got to see what they are all about firsthand

They are a very worthwhile charity organization

Hell, I think they should be exposed, not just dismissed.

usually give them a good bit of cash during the season. Not a fricking penny this year.

Same here. I'm not made of money by any means and my family usually does slightly better than scraping by, but we get by.

Salvation Army donation is one of the few yearly donations I make, and this year I just donated more to the Gary Sinise Foundation and left SA out.

When whoever made that stupid decision to go racist at Salvation Army publicly admits their error and resigns, I will donate to them again. Nothing less will do.

Just heard a rather profound and sincere apology


Was looking for it on twitter and couldn't find it anywhere. All I saw from the SA account was them talking about clearing up misinformation. I asked what misinformation. It was directly from their guide.

considering 87% of all their donations come from whites it was a great idea to tell whites they are all racist POS that need to apologize for existing.

the apology is not accepted because it was only done out of desperation trying to get donations up, they still have the same mindset as before and this is just an attempt at damage control

That was an apology out of necessity, not out of a true change of heart.

Apparently insulting race that keeps your business open is not a good idea . Who would have thought.

I gave money for decades - not a dime more until FREE AMERICAN interests are codified - and I do MEAN WRITTEN, TAUGHT, AND ENSURED.

WTF IS WRONG WITH THESE PEOPLE?

WHITE PEOPLE ARE THE BACKBONE OF EVERYTHING GOOD EVER DONE IN THIS COUNTRY. PAY ATTENTION TO THAT or let your WOKE become your BROKE

Organizations trying to appease the leftist wokesters should just ignore them and stick to what they do that they know works.

Remember the left's attempt to boycott Chick-Fil-a. It resulted in an outpouring of support and over crowded restaurants. (They later somewhat bent the knee anyway.)

They must've realized that white people were the main ones donating

This was one of the dumbest decisions in non profit organization history.


It's dumb if you want the organization to persist and to continue to help people.

I don't think the people that made the decision actually want that. I think they want to destroy the organization.

Kenneth Hodder needs to resign. I won't drop a cent in the buckets until then.
