Like a lot of people, I thought that my donations to the National Humane Society would work it's way through the system and come back to help abused and neglected pets throughout the country.
I was wrong.
I scanned the tax return information on their website this morning, and became very angry. The National Humane society has assets of over 200 million dollars, and it appears to be used primarily as a fund for lobbiest (or funnel money to politicians). What really made me mad was that no money made it's way back to any of the local animal shelters.
If you want to fund politicians, give to the national Humane society. If you want to help neglected pets, give to your local shelter. The two are not connected.
