A recent study has focused on America's 50 Worst Charities
http://www.tampabay.com/topics/specials/worst-charities1.page
But these charities are small time operations compared to the worst Charity
of All: Guide dogs for the Blind of Marin County.
These Charities Operate by approaching wealthy elderly people on their
death beds and telling them that rather than leave their money to their
children it is far, far better to leave their money to a noble cause such
as helping orphans, cancer patients, blind people or other disadvantaged
persons.
But where the money really goes is right in to the pockets of the operators
of the charities.
Guide Dogs for the Blind has assets of over $300 million dollars, almost
all of it in Marin County, California. It is the biggest property owner in
Marin County. It gets on average $30 million in donations per year.
All it really does is give lessons to train volunteers on how to train
guide dogs.
The IRS filings show that Guide Dogs for the Blind pay their own officers
more than a million dollars per year.
If you look at the list of the 50 Worst Charities you will see that Guide
Dogs for the Blind have more assets and income that all of the other 50 bad
charities COMBINED !!!!!

Of course, I have a personal interest in this, because Guide Dogs for the
Blind is trying to steal Mike Goodall's house and estate, using forged
instruments which they claim to have lost. The case is now on appeal to the
California Court of Appeal.
