I would want to know that say .90c on every dollar I donate goes straight into the athletes pocket. a lot of charities in this country are run to benefit the directors. not the actual cause. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah sad but true. CHARITY is a business and usually benefits the top of the organizations financially. There are still some good one out there but I always view any charity's finances and breakdowns before donating. I still am not giving anything to nil. I have asked Brad if we can have a group to pledge a certain amount per win like tiers 5,10,20,50, and 100 to donate it to the ocs directly. I like to know exactly where my dollars are going. The players get paid easily over 70,000 plus per year already with coaching, food, dietitians, strength training, tuition, free books, free housing, and access to elite facilities like the ipf.

A coach I spoke with seems to think the money I gave to the collective will find its way to the players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly not volunteers... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
