Re: Are charities a business?

There have been so many scams involving 'charities'..the one I really dislike are the clothes collection bags..I refuse to use them for discarded clothes.We just use them for rubbish bags instead.I prefer to go to one of the 5 charities in my local high street and donate my old clothes to them.Also I won't give to collectors outside supermarkets except the Poppy Appeal of course.Not all of them are legit.
As for the begging letters. I use my common sense and bin them.I also use an answer phone that nicely sorts out those annoying phone calls..they just hang up and move on.

Oh and the poll could do with an option of not all charities are business orientated..
