Trump Funneled Donations For Children’s Cancer Hospital to His Own Business

[Eaglewings]

How freaking low can a person get...?

President Trump's charity foundation funneled $100,000 in donations meant for St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital into revenue for the Trump Organization by using his son's charity, Forbes reported Tuesday.

For 10 years Eric Trump hosted an annual golf tournament that raised millions of dollars in donations for the hospital. According to the Forbes report, $100,000 of the donations was funneled through the Eric Trump Foundation back into Trump's golf courses for expenses incurred during the tournaments, despite donors being told that all their money would be used for charity.

Forbes Welcome

Donors contributed more than $500,000 that they believed was being used to help sick children. In fact, their donations were going to other Trump-connected charities, according to the magazine.

From the link you so graciously provided... "To date, Eric Trump has raised more than $11 million for St. Jude's hospital."

As I recall Eric Trump has been forced to close down the foundation and Democrats are proud of themselves for screwing over the kids that could have received free and necessary care the multi-millions could have provided..

There's a special place in Hell for crooks like that entire crowd!

Just Wow....

However, Forbes has found that this $100,000 “passed through the Eric Trump Foundation–and wound up in the coffers of Donald Trump’s private businesses.”

Even though Eric Trump had originally set up the golf tournament so that all money raised would go directly to the St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital in Memphis, Tennessee, sources tell Forbes that the elder Trump grew furious that his younger son let his foundation’s charity use the Trump National Golf Course for free.

You think that there are not expenses to pay on fund raising events? Did you get this disgusted with Clinton's charity bullshit?

That is part of the scam. Others raise funds like that without taking a cut.
It is interesting how the trump cult is able to make excuses for anything the trump's do, no matter how vile. Watch this thread and see how even robbing children dying from cancer is excused if it is done by the trump's.

Haa Haa, I was counting the minutes until Clinton's name came up, you win the prize... This is Trump that we are talking about..not the Clinton's.

Somebody should look into what his cut out of that haul was.

What a POS.




How Donald Trump Shifted Kids-Cancer Charity Money Into His Business

The best part about all this, according to Eric Trump, is the charity's efficiency: Because he can get his family's golf course for free and have most of the other costs donated, virtually all the money contributed will go toward helping kids with cancer. "We get to use our assets 100% free of charge," Trump tells Forbes.


That's not the case. In reviewing filings from the Eric Trump Foundation and other charities, it's clear that the course wasn't free--that the Trump Organization received payments for its use, part of more than $1.2 million that has no documented recipients past the Trump Organization. Golf charity experts say the listed expenses defy any reasonable cost justification for a one-day golf tournament.

Additionally, the Donald J. Trump Foundation, which has come under previous scrutiny for self-dealing and advancing the interests of its namesake rather than those of charity, apparently used the Eric Trump Foundation to funnel $100,000 in donations into revenue for the Trump Organization.

And while donors to the Eric Trump Foundation were told their money was going to help sick kids, more than $500,000 was re-donated to other charities, many of which were connected to Trump family members or interests, including at least four groups that subsequently paid to hold golf tournaments at Trump courses.

All of this seems to defy federal tax rules and state laws that ban self-dealing and misleading donors. It also raises larger questions about the Trump family dynamics and whether Eric and his brother, Don Jr., can be truly independent of their father.

Obviously a 1% expense going out for to pay for whatever was utilized at places with his dad's name on it is too much for these dumbasses but its not an issue with charities that are only giving an actual 2% of their intake to whatever charity they claim they are raising for.

Here is the problem :

It becomes problematic, Hackney said, when a charity claims to send 100 percent of donations to an intended beneficiary, but routes some of that money through their own business without fully disclosing that fact to donors.
