I can relate! One of the neighbor's kids knocked on my door one day looking for people to sponsor him on a charity walk. I signed up and pledged five bucks. A couple of weeks later I received a notification in the mail telling me where to send my pledge. It was for a CATHOLIC SCHOOL! Now, if I had known from the get-go that the money was going to a Catholic School I would have said no. I just ripped up the thing and threw it away. Another couple of weeks went by and I received another notice from the school. This time the form had SECOND NOTICE stamped across the top in red! Like this is some type of bill I had better pay! Can you believe the gall? I ripped that up as well and never sent any money. It was also the last time I heard from them.
I never donate to christian aid.
