Here is a bit from the report done by Market Watch:

Cancer charities accused of spending $187 million in donations on dating sites, trips to Disney

Tuesday, Federal regulators accused four cancer charities  of spending more than $187 million in donations not to help patients, but on cars, luxury cruises and trips, jet ski outings, sport and concert tickets, dating site memberships and college tuition for family and friends.
Who would do something this horrid?

Four Sham Charities —

 According to a federal complaint filed in the District Court of Arizona, the following four charities:

  • Cancer Fund of America, Inc., 
  • Cancer Support Services Inc., 
  • Children’s Cancer Fund of America, Inc. and 
  • The Breast Cancer Society Inc. — 
“operated as personal fiefdoms characterized by rampant nepotism, flagrant conflicts of interest and excessive insider compensation,”

Largest USA Charity Fraud Case!

All 50 states and D.C. joined the Federal Trade Commission in filing the charge — one of the largest charity fraud cases to date, according to the FTC.
Some of the  personal expenses charged to company credit cards by employees included: meals at Hooters, cell phone apps and games, car washes, gas and movie tickets. all-expense paid trips for board members, employees and their families to Disney World, and even the cost to bring along a baby sitter.!
