henny I started to mention them in my other post Everytime I drop something in that Red Kettle I look them in the eye and tell them.......I am giving this because I trust your charity.

I quit giving to some other well known Charities , quite a few years ago , when I found out how much the ones that run the charity makes , and also when I see them drive around in high priced vehicles and eat at some

Canadian lottery winner donates $40 million jackpot to charityReply
Just because he's going to set up a Trust doesn't mean there is anything sinister going on. That's the way to do it if you're doing charity/philanthropy.(rather than just giving out cash/gifts yourself) And including his kids, who can be involved with and learn about charity/philanthropy, becoming trustees, assigning funds to beneficiaries, that's a great thing for a dad to do.

Good info. I need to add this to my future charity plans if I win big. I planned to check out the the charities but forgot about the BOD salaries.

Donate to your local no kill rescue group or no-kill shelter.

Nice that you feel so comfortable being condescending toward others, but your wrong again as their are many more in this world (not like you) than 1 in 175.000.000 who would give ALL their winning to charity. Might YOU be one of those who would give ALL their winnings to charity?

A very generous individual could donate ALL their winnings to charity and actually get a refund back from the IRS...I think it's safe to say it won't be happening anytime soon. By all means Jill, please explain to us (little people) how giving to a charity entitles the giver to a refund?

If a person decided to give the entire amount to charity the tax bill would be exactly ZERO.
