There's charity and there's charity...

Walking in to work this morning was a bus-stop advert for a supermarket's charity Christmas cards. Not wishing to gripe or anything but from their 50p box of charity cards, only 10% went to the charity.


Card Aid, the not-for-profit organisation gives 100% of its profits to the charities involved. Indeed, their website also links to the Charities Advisory Trusts annual Scrooge Awards that "awards" the companies with the meanest donation from their "charity" cards.


So remember, if you're still looking to buy your Christmas cards this year, not all charity cards are equal.
