In light Haiti and RedCross.
Interesting old article regarding Haiti Red Cross and how it spends it $$. Chuck Grassley was concerned way back:
"It’s unclear why the Red Cross enters into contracts with other organizations stipulating that details of grants can’t be disclosed to the media or donors," he said. "Who’s driving the lack of disclosure, the Red Cross or the grant recipients? What’s the rationale for it? It’s hard to see how disclosing the dollar amounts given from the Red Cross to the individual organizations and how those organizations spent the money would harm anyone."
Senator Grassley also said he has further questions about the spending numbers, overhead costs, and results achieved by the Red Cross and its partners.
