To do good, donors must do their homework
· Give without being taken
Only
15% of those surveyed say they have confidence in charities (Chronicle of Philanthropy,
10/15)
One in four Americans, or
25.3 percent, volunteered with an organization last year, according to the
annual "Volunteering
and Civic Life in America" report. Though the rate is down only slightly from
25.4 percent in 2013, it has been declining for the past decade.
“The
average American household donated $2030 to favorite causes last year.” (Giving
USA) … “…people waste billions of dollars on inefficient, poorly run, or
downright fraudulent charities because they do not bother to research where
their money is going,” (Liz Weston, Reuters.com)
Skunk of the Month…
Skunk of the Month is the twice-monthly designation
made by Nonprofit Imperative, the
organization dedicated to eliminating waste, fraud, abuse and mismanagement in
nonprofits and government. The Skunk of the Month award is given to
charities and government officials who show blatant disregard for the interests
and trust of contributors and taxpayers. This month’s example is:
“They
came to do good and they did very well indeed (for themselves).”
American Red Cross
Implosion? Reduction in revenues and other serious troubles…and more trouble
Under Gail McGovern, the Red Cross has slashed
its payroll by more than a third, eliminating thousands of jobs and closing
hundreds of local chapters. Many veteran volunteers, who do the vital work of
responding to local fires and floods have also left, alienated by what many
perceive as an increasingly rigid, centralized management structure.
In 2013, losses were
mounting. The organization ran a $70 million deficit that fiscal year and has been in the red ever
since. Internal projections say the charity will not break even before 2017.
But such projections have not served the organization well. All of this despite
a projected billion-dollar jump in revenue, powered by expanded fundraising and
growing profits from fees paid for CPR classes, swimming lessons and training
materials.
Special government
oversight of the charity’s blood-banking operation, which collects and sells
blood to hospitals, has cost the organization tens of millions of dollars in
fines. A federal judge ended two decades of such oversight. The blood
unit, which is the Red Cross’ largest division, is a $100 million drag on the
charity’s bottom line, in part because changes in medicine have sharply reduced
the demand for blood. In its statement, the Red Cross pointed to those changes
as the reason for the charity’s recent deficits.
When McGovern was
hired as CEO, there were over 700 Red Cross chapters across the country. Today,
there are around 250, though some former chapter offices stayed open even as
they were folded into other chapters. The Red Cross declined to say how many
offices it closed.
The number of paid
employees fell from around 36,000 to around 23,000. Amid layoffs, bonuses given
have raised eyebrows within the Red Cross, a former headquarters official said.
An internal survey
obtained by ProPublica found volunteers around the country had a satisfaction
rate of 32 percent this year — down 20 points from last year.
Between 2001 and 2008, the
organization went through six interim or permanent leaders, several of whom
departed amid allegations of mismanagement and misuse of donated funds.
In 2007, the Red Cross board, led by
Bonnie McElveen-Hunter — a wealthy Republican donor appointed by President
George W. Bush in 2004 — recruited Bush administration official Mark Everson as
the CEO who would bring stability to the organization. Six months later, the
board forced Everson out after the affair with his subordinate, touching off
yet another round of embarrassing headlines.
Related problem: Rep. Bennie Thompson said it is “critical” for the Red glenn.trevisan@gmail.com
Cross to act quickly in response to problems
reported by ProPublica. The key congressman who sits on a committee that
oversees the American Red Cross is pressing the group’s chief executive for
information about how layoffs and other cuts have affected its ability to
respond to disasters. In a six-page letter , Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Miss, cites ProPublica’s recent reporting on Red Cross Chief Executive Gail McGovern as well as
previous coverage by us and NPR on the charity’s responses to Superstorm Sandy and the 2010 Haiti
earthquake.
“Given the Red Cross’ important role in responding to both domestic and
international disasters, it is critical that it acts quickly to address the
serious problems ProPublica, NPR, and the GAO uncovered this year,” Thompson
wrote, referring to a Government Accountability Office report that found the
charity would benefit from more scrutiny from
the federal government. Thompson has requested copies of any internal Red Cross
after-action reports assessing the group’s responses to the recent Valley Fire
in Northern California and disasters in West Virginia, which have been the
subject of local criticism. For major disasters, the Red Cross typically produces
after-action reports but does not release them to the public. On the international front, Thompson is requesting more information
about what the Red Cross has done in Nepal following the April earthquake.
McGovern recently wrote a blog
post stating
that the charity “played a leading role in supporting relief operations in
Nepal.” Thompson has asked for details on how much money the Red Cross raised
for Nepal and what it has been spent on. “How did the lessons learned from the Red Cross’
response to Haiti inform its activities in Nepal?” it continues.
OH NO!! Another Priest Named In A Huge Charity Theft
Just
last month, Nonprofit Imperative had
a story about a priest in Michigan that admitted to stealing almost $600,000
and was sentenced to 27 months in prison.
Now another Catholic priest is in
the news having swiped collection-plate donations to pay for drug-fueled sex romps, “illicit and prescription drugs” a
$264,000 home in Brick, NJ, and paid $1,075.50 a month for a East Harlem
apartment, court papers say. In addition to skimming $20 bills from the
collection plate there, Rev. Peter Miqueli ripped off money raised to buy a new
pipe organ at his former church.
He also put sex friend in charge
of the Cabrini thrift shop, where Miqueli “misappropriated and diverted money . . . for his own
personal use” and destroyed financial records to cover up the theft, the suit
says.
The best guess is that he took $2
million from two parishes.
“Since day one of his arrival, everything has
gone downhill,” a parishioner said. “From his bad attitude to his constant
arrogance, this man is solely ruining one of the great Catholic parishes in the
Bronx.
“I would say the parish is a third to a half
of what it was,” told The Post. “It’s the shell of the place it once was.”
The suit, which was filed in
Manhattan Supreme Court also charges that the Archdiocese of New York and
Cardinal Timothy Dolan knew about Miqueli’s “illegal scheme” and did nothing
for a period of nine years. (nypost.com)
“Thus far, no evidence
has been offered, and our forensic audit has thus far failed to uncover
evidence of embezzlement,” said the Archdiocese of New York.
Charity Check Up:
Principal Takes $700,000 From Students
A former principal at
Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder's reform school district and two others have been
indicted by a federal grand jury on a slew of charges, including bribery,
conspiracy, money laundering and tax evasion.
Principal Kenyetta
Wilbourn Snapp and two contractors was filed in federal court. It is the latest
black eye for the struggling Education
Achievement Authority and portrays Snapp, a once high-rising,
Maserati-driving principal known for carrying a bat in school hallways, as
pocketing more than $58,000 in kickbacks.
Snapp hired a
contractor to provide after-school tutoring for almost $700,000, according to
court records and state documents
Several other school
officials are also under FBI scrutiny.
Charged alongside
Snapp are:
- Glynis Thornton owner and operator of
Southfield-based M.A.D.E.
Training & Consulting Inc., also known as Making a Difference
Everyday. The company offered to provide public schools with after-school
tutoring.
- Paulette Horton an independent contractor who
worked for Thornton and had her own consulting firm called Picking Up the Pieces Inc.
From October 2012 to
October 2014, Thornton's firm was paid $695,634, according to state records. In
return, Thornton paid Snapp kickbacks, according to the indictment.
Thornton disguised
the payments by writing checks to Horton's company instead of paying Snapp
directly, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office. Horton allegedly cashed the
checks and gave the money to Snapp, the indictment alleges. Horton kept 10
percent of the cash and gave $58,050 to Snapp, according to the indictment.
Snapp occasionally
even went with Horton to the bank and waited for her to cash the checks.
Snapp allegedly failed
to report more than $26,000 worth of income during 2012 while Horton is charged
with failing to file individual tax returns for 2011. (crainsdetroit)
The Detroit Public
Schools district is more than $515 million in debt.
Another Massive Vets Charity Fraud
A former bookkeeper for the National Veterans Service Fund in Darien
(CT) has pleaded guilty to charges related to her stealing about $800,000 from
the organization.
She pleaded guilty to
wire fraud and tax evasion offenses for her embezzlement.
The NVSF provides social services and medical assistance to veterans
from the Vietnam and Persian Gulf wars, as well as their families.
Police said she started at NVSF in 2008 and was responsible for payroll
and disbursement of funds to clients. She is accused of writing unauthorized
checks to herself and family members for personal expenses, though she tried to
cover it up by claiming the money was given to veterans in need.
The tax evasion charge is due to her not reporting the embezzled money
on her federal tax returns, resulting in a federal tax loss of more than
$270,000.
The theft spanned over five years, from January 2009 to June 2014.

was the Board; where were the audits?
A Thought or Two:
Child Leukemia Charity Closed After Millions Misused
New York State
attorney general reached a settlement to permanently close a child leukemia
charity- National Children's Leukemia Foundation- accused of fraud.
The attorney general
will also recover $380,000 dollars from the foundation, most of which will be
directed to charities helping children with leukemia. The founder forfeited
claims to an additional $612,844 in back pay, in addition to a claim to a
lifetime pension and other benefits.
The foundation
collected $9.7 million from 2009 to 2013. Some 80 percent of the money went to
telemarketing and direct-mail fundraising campaigns, and only $57,451 was paid
out in direct cash assistance to leukemia patients.
The foundation also fraudulently
claimed to have a bone marrow registry and cancer research building in Israel.
The president of the foundation,
until his resignation in 2010, had been convicted of bank fraud in 1999. The
foundation’s accountant took over as president, but the original founder and
president continued to run things. He established the foundation in 1991 after
losing a son to leukemia. He paid himself $595,000 in salary and $600,000 in
deferred compensation from 2009 to 2013, and a lifetime pension of more than
$100,000 a year.

would have been raised otherwise, according to figures from the Department of
Management Services. The Florida State Employees’ Charitable Campaign totaled,
as of Dec. 4, an anemic $545,003, its lowest tally in more than 30 years. Total

payments that some museum patrons made for memberships between June 2008 and

The nonprofit that
serves Denver residents with intellectual and developmental disabilities- Rocky Mountain Human Services-misused millions of
dollars from taxpayers with few inquiries by the city, an audit released.
Between January 2014 and June, RMHS overcharged the city $650,000 for
administrative expenses. RMHS spent $48,000 on meetings in 2014, with most of
that money going to meals for staff members. Former RMHS CEO Stephen Block, who
was put on leave this year and eventually fired, received $478,974 in pay and
benefits in 2014, more than double the next-highest executive of a comparable
taxpayer-funded service nonprofit in Colorado. In addition to removing its top
executive and former chief financial officer, RMHS has cut back perks and brought
its budget — which was running a deficit. The audit put blame for the misuse of
taxpayers' money on the city for not doing a better job of monitoring RMHS
before Mares' demand for accountability.
6 A judge has ordered, through issuing a permanent injunction,
that a gay-conversion nonprofit must close within 30 days. The New Jersey
nonprofit was, in June, found to have violated consumer fraud laws, and a

plaintiffs. A State Superior Court Judge ordered Jews Offering New Alternatives
for Healing (JONAH) to cease all operations within 30 days, also barring it
from “engaging, whether directly or through referrals, in any therapy,
counseling, treatment or activity that has the goal of changing, affecting or

was “unable to discern between non-profit activities carried out by the
Hospital on the Subject Property, and the for-profit activities carried out by
private physicians.” It pays
its CEO $5 million a year, completely unconscionable, said the judge.

Universal Pictures had promised to donate a
“portion” of DVD and Blu-ray sales for “Fast & Furious 6” to Walker’s Reach Out Worldwide nonprofit in 2014. That portion turned out to be less than 1 percent of
the proceeds. Walker
founded his charity in 2010 to help the victims of natural disasters, after
participating in relief efforts in Haiti. Donations to Reach Out Worldwide
totaled just $20,000 in 2010. It never registered with the California Attorney
General’s Office as required. Reach Out Worldwide’s charitable giving was
underwhelming. It distributed $81,269 to the victims of tornadoes in Arkansas
and Oklahoma and the typhoon in the Philippines, its tax filings show.
11 The Internal Revenue Service improperly granted tax-exempt
status to more than a third of nonprofits that used a new short-form
application, according to the National Taxpayer Advocate’s annual
report to Congress.
The report suggested that the agency rubber-stamped applications rather than
subjecting them to the most basic review. The IRS first offered the three-page
form in July 2014 for organizations with gross revenue of $50,000 or less and
assets of $250,000 or less. For qualifying applicants, it replaced a 26-page
form. The agency said the new form would help reduce a backlog of
applicants, while critics complained that the longer form helped weed out cheats.
In a study of 408 nonprofits in 20
states, the advocate’s office found that 37 percent of applicants using the
1023-EZ application form did not meet the organizational test required of
nonprofits. One-third of applicants did not provide an acceptable purpose
clause, which defines the group’s mission, and 23 percent did not provide for
an acceptable distribution of assets should the organization dissolve.

Since
2010, National Legal and Policy Center has helped expose one corrupt New York
politician after another. Here’s the scorecard:
•
New York State Senator John Sampson was convicted on July 24 of obstruction of
justice. A former Senate Majority Leader, he was charged with embezzlement,
obstruction of justice and making false statements to the FBI. He allegedly
embezzled $440,000 from escrow accounts on foreclosed properties. The Sampson
investigation reportedly was prompted by media coverage of NLPC’s scrutiny of
U.S. Rep. Gregory Meeks (D-NY) and his political network.
•
On July 1, former New York State Senator Malcolm Smith was sentenced to seven
years in prison after his conviction for bribery, extortion, and wire fraud.
His conviction resulted from a scheme to bribe Republican officials to allow
Smith to run for New York City mayor as a Republican. The Smith investigation
was reportedly prompted by media coverage of NLPC’s scrutiny of New Direction
Local Development Corporation (described below), of which Smith and Meeks were
founders.
•
On February 2, 2015, Albert Baldeo, a Meeks associate, and Democratic Party
leader in New York City, was sentenced to 18 months in a federal penitentiary
following his conviction for obstructing justice. He reported phantom donors to
his unsuccessful 2010 City Council campaign in order to qualify for taxpayer
matching funds. The scheme was described in a New York Post story of October 2011, based on
information provided by NLPC.
•
On September 10, 2014, Melvin E. Lowe, a New York political consultant, was
found guilty of conspiring with State Senator John Sampson of Brooklyn to
defraud the New York Senate Democratic Campaign Committee out of $100,000.
Sampson and Lowe were caught up in an investigation prompted by NLPC's scrutiny
of Meeks.
•
New York City Councilman Ruben Wills was arrested on May 7, 2014. He is accused
of looting a nonprofit group he controlled that was the recipient of taxpayer
funds. At the time, Mills was Chief of Staff to State Senator Shirley Huntley
(D-Queens) who was convicted and imprisoned for a similar scheme that was
exposed by NLPC.
•
On December 5, 2013, Dr. Dorothy Ogundu was arrested on the basis of
information provided to the New
York Post by NLPC. A Nigerian-born physician, Ogundu ran a fake
health clinic in Queens, New York. She was accused of stealing $370,000 from
twelve separate government grants. She was a prominent donor to Meeks, who
secured $380,500 in earmarked funds for the fake clinic.
•
In January 2013, former State Senator Shirley Huntley was convicted of fraud.
In March 2011, a New York Post article,
based on info provided by NLPC, exposed a sham charity she founded called The
Parents Workshop, to which she steered taxpayer money. An aide and her niece
helped her siphon off $87,000. Huntley was arrested in August 2012 and spent a
year in prison.
•
On July 28, 2012, the New York
Times published a front-page story based on information provided by
NLPC. The article spotlighted a “mysterious donor” named Bob Williams who made
$900,000 in political contributions despite having no visible means of support.
Williams vanished after the article. (nlpc.org)
