  Donate to the other kidney foundation then...
  
  They don't have flashy donation drives, CEOs taking 1st class flights for useless seminars..
  
  They just quietly get the job done...

  ever since ren ci's show with Channel U alot of ppl have "awakened" to the donation drives...
  
  ppl still want the "prizes" still... but then... donate or not, is up to the ppl...
  
  feed the really poor and needy? or feed the money mongers?? a very easy choice to make
  =)
  
  i dun like NKF, get millions, juz to give millions away, never really putting much to good use

We nurture hope and confidence to make life more meaningful, even for the most needy. (stolen from their home page)
