No.

And forget about any future donations.

Yeah, I don't trust a single actual charitable organization. They are all companies paying themselves.

If there is one or two good ones I'm sorry they get lost in the mix but oh well.

A charity getting into politics...freaking ignorant.

I just donated to them a few days ago. I wish I'd known about this.

Interestingly enough they hid all the material on their international website, not on the US website.

Well, shit. They were the one outfit I thought I could trust to use my donation wisely and not spend 90% of it on "administrative costs".

Not only will they not get one thin dime from me, the poor bell-ringer will get an explanation of why that will be impossible to misinterpret.

An email contact: donations@salvationarmyusa.org

The bell-ringer has probably been brainwashed into a guilt-ridden whitey, already. So, it will fall on deaf ears.

Oops! I subconsciously automatically thought of a white person ringing the bell. I am therefore racist, and I do apologize.....NOT!

What a disappointment. SA is now on my No-way-no more list.

I give money to my church. I sit there every Sunday and see what they are doing in my immediate area. I’m ok with that. A friend is a very low paid manager of a st Vincent de Paul soup kitchen back in CA. I sent his specific office some money this week so they can buy more turkeys. I know they are running on a shoestring. But otherwise I’ll keep my cash and take care of my own immediate area.

Yup every year I give money to these people. Fuck them now, and I will let every single one I walk past why. Let them all take it back to their masters, I had 500 people tell me to fuck off this year and didn't donate because of our woke bullshit




Don't weep for the stupid, or you will be crying all day

My wife is good friends with a woman that runs an independent local food bank. Looks like they'll be getting an extra-large windfall donation from us now that we've scratched SA off the approved charity list.

Growing up my dad's family lost everything in the Yuba City Flood of 1955. The Salvation Army was the only organization that they received any help from. It was his primary charity that he contributed to every year without fault. I've continued that tradition to honor him. Looks like I will have to re-examine that tradition.

Well, this is a large disappointment!
Oh well, I guess that money will be going to a couple of Boxer Rescues I contribute to!

I guess this lunacy will never stop. They must be confidant that will not affect their donations...or they just don't care. Amazing.

Not another penny from me.
