This is why women should run all charities.

The boss lady of Oxfam didn't come across at all well when she was interviewed, and the CEO has publicly stated that he thinks Oxfam is being treated to harshly. I would be surprised if Oxfam is still going this time next year.

I only caught the end of Winnie's interview but what I saw was a mess

Oxfam again.

The Charity Commission's report found it "had a culture of tolerating poor behaviour and... failed to meet promises made on safeguarding, ultimately letting everyone down".


....it’s so very sad because these terrible incidents that shouldn’t ever happen with correct safeguarding measures in place have and will inevitably deter people from donating and supporting ...not just this charity but charities in general, people will become sceptic and wary etc...and that’s understandable also...ultimately, the people it damages and harms are the people who so desperately need these charities to be supported, their help is vital to so many...

i have been wary of charities for years. There are just too many scams going on. It requires very careful research to see how hard earned money is actually used

...yeah, I do understand, bots...I think so many people are sceptical, sadly...I’ve always been in a privileged position of knowing of specific projects through involvement of people I know or have spoken to and looking into how those projects can be supported directly...in general, that’s the better way for help to go directly, rather than cash donations...

The big ones seem to be. This Oxfam thing is a disgrace

This is not a shock to me, think I have posted this before but when my grandad passed away my Nana was bored so started to vaulenteer at the local Oxfam to her and the woman who ran the small shop was a bitch, she treated people working for free like crap, she literally said to my Nana that most working their were pathetic 'dolies' who only do the work to keep their benefits and my Nana and another lady saw her marking items down in price for herself, a designer YSL scarf that they could have sold for a lot more.

The other lady reported her and those above didn't care, nothing was done and my Nana and the lady who reported her quit and the other working did a collection to buy them a card and some flowers and the bitch refused to even sign either card.

Handing out dodgy, unearned contracts is fine for this government, but anyone else doing dodgy stuff will not be tolerated.

this has happened so many times now, it's a wonder charities get any money at all
