We've been telling people since day one that the real way to help with this disaster is to write a check, because they're just not prepared at the other end to receive goods.»
«There are a lot of bad people willing to prey on people with good intentions.»
«If they're soliciting to people saying they're not receiving any federal reimbursement . . . that seems like we may have an issue with them being deceptive with donors. But I don't want to criticize them for being successful in figuring out how the system works.»

«We are happy to announce that The Billings Food Bank has earned a 4-star rating for its ability to efficiently allocate and grow its finances. Less than a quarter of the charities we've rated have received our highest rating, indicating that The Billings Food Bank outperforms most charities in America in its efforts to operate in the most fiscally responsible way possible. This 'exceptional' rating from Charity Navigator differentiates The Billings Food Bank from its peers and proves that it's worthy of the public's trust.»
«They spend an awful lot of money to raise their money, which usually is something that's not necessary when you have the star power and public relations rating of an organization like that.»
