Hi Michael and all,

Michael, they are simply helping the people down there with no strings 
attached. Do a bit of research before you put them down. Better yet they 
are giving most of the money donated to where it belongs and not paying 
some fat administrator a six figure sum which does nothing to help the 
poor people down there. I think it is best to put money where it will do 
the most good and go to where it is suppose to go.

I understand that some people wouldn't want to give to a Christian 
Organization and I appreciate and respect that but I think that Billy 
Graham has a sterling reputation and this organization really helps 
people out. I don't think that the Samaritan's Purse operates as a 
religious organization but rather as a humanitarian group. There are 
some organizations that don't operate political and put prejudices aside 
and do what they should do and in this case it is simply helping the 
victims of all this.

No doubt there there are other organizations out there that also have 
similar goals that people can donate to but please do your research or 
most of the money can end up in the wrong place. All my best!
