As I was thinking of what proposals that have been most effective to me, the animal commercial was not one that quickly came to mind. It honestly wasn’t until you posted about it that I soon realized how similar our points of views really are on this matter. If you were to ask anyone who knows me, they would tell you that I would try to help anyone in their time of needs. I personally don’t agree with the way this commercial or even the Feed the Children commercials have there way of trying to make you feel guilty with the many misfortunes of life. I have given to a few of charities in the past, to include Feed the Children. I did so believing that I was doing the right thing either way.
It was not until last year when I was doing a research paper for another college class that I found out that there was a big scam going on with the Feed the Children program. The money that was being donated was found being used in other ways than intended for. I have never understood why some individuals try and use the needy to their advantage when it comes to making a buck. This to me is very unethical though it has seemed to become more common in the world today. I think I will just stick to helping out the local charity groups by donating my time rather than money.
