charity adds on tv
it seams that at this time of year they ask for money for children and the like of
but have you notice the children in the adds are the same ones each year
they got to be about twenty by now
as I can remember a lot of these adds years ago

pour on the guilt with lashings of more guilt served with a side order of twanging heart strings, I now have compassion fatigue and I volunteer for a local charity!!

As times get harder and belts are tightened I guess charities suffer and they probably think a pull on the heart strings at this time of year will loosen our purses strings, with all the technology available today there is no reason to watch adverts I record everything we watch and cannot remember the last time I watched an advert.

Hi!
A 2015 report that showed an average of 43% of charitable income in the UK gets spent on good causes was deemed "misleading" by many of the charities concerned. http://metro.co.uk/2015/12/13/worri...re-going-heres-what-you-need-to-know-5562425/

According to the daily telegraph 32 charities have chief executives on £200,000 per year or more.
