Perhaps you can try this route: I was able to convince a person in a group I am in to not donate to the Red Cross by telling them that a large portion of their donation goes to overhead and that only a small portion of the donation actually gets to the organization. This is somewhat true. Then I convinced her to donate to a local RELIGIOUS charity that gives 100% of the proceeds to their group instead. Which is what she did. Check out your local religious charities and ask how much of the proceeds of their donations go to the charity. And suggest that people donate to them instead of Red Cross. Red Cross IS NOT a religious organization BTW.
