The IDEA Of Helping People Is More Important Than Actually DOING Anything
-
How much of a percentage of the money taken in by Bono's ONE foundation goes to actually help people? This report claims it's the big, big total of 1%. In 2008, says the study, the charity took in almost 9.6 million pounds and gave out 118,000 to charitable causes, but it paid 5.1 million in salaries. In its own defense, the organization says it's an advocacy operation and doesn't ever say it actually does anything on the ground. Donor beware.
