Earlier today I posted a call for a dig on the coin shortage, Kroger, their charity Zero Hunger Zero Waste, and their donation facilitator OneCause.
I seems to me that these “checkout charities” are a perfect money funneling system for nefarious groups, especially in light of the opportunity to coerce consumers into donating because of the coin shortage. According to The Non Profit Report, OneCause helped raise 720 million dollars last year. That’s a lot of money and there’s not much info on where it goes.
OneCause costs around $100 a month for a business to utilize.
Turns out there is a similar charity called Get Lively that was founded by Jonathan Soros, George Soros’ son.

Give Lively does not charge for the use of its online-giving tools.
Who uses Give Lively?
Why, the Clinton Foundation is one example…
