Information Instead Of Accountability; NonProfit Money Making Quests

                Many nonprofit organizations have done incredible jobs making sure that they are the information source for whatever problem, concern or issue they address. People mistakenly believe that being a good source of information is the same thing as providing effective solutions and interventions.
                When nonprofits appear knowledgeable, they then appear to be on top of their game, and the place where people will send contributions and grant often undeserved legitimacy.
                Name the problem or concern, and a simple internet search will provide an array of nonprofits that eagerly want to be the information source for that concern.
                 Appearing on top of their game does not mean an organization is effective, that it is not self serving, that it actually ameliorates suffering, and that it appropriately and properly addresses serious issues.
                 An internet search of an array of issues, including animal cruelty, conservation, dog fighting, wildlife protection, rain forest protection, dolphins, whales, other marine life, birds, bats, chimpanzees, other great apes, big cats, small cats, canines, third world poverty, third world child welfare - the list is endless- will produce a plethora of nonprofit organizations.
                  Unfortunately, the day has yet to come when people wake up to the fact that presenting information, appearing knowledgeable, does not mean these organizations are effective and not harmful.
                   Information is useful. But not if it continues to provide cover for the lack of accountability and effectiveness.
