Re: Are charities a business?
This is always going to be a contentiuos subject.
Consider a local Hospice, run as a charity that must spend the majority of donations on running costs etc. Yes they do get a certain amount form Government but the rest must be raised locally.
That is just 1 example of 1 charity where wages and running costs are neccessarily where the money is spent.
Notwithstanding the above I do think a lot of the National charities are run as a business where it would appear more is spent on administration than on where it is supposed to go.
I only support local community charities now. That's money well spent.
