HSUS GETS ANOTHER “D” RATING FROM CHARITY WATCHDOG GROUP

Humanewatch.org, the consumer organization that speaks out against animal rights extremism, is reporting that the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) has received another "D" grade from a leading indepdendent charity watchdog group, the American Institute of Philanthropy’s Charity Watch–for the second year in a row.

According to a September 20 post on the Humanewatch website, HSUS received the "D" grade for "spending paltry amounts on their programs and maintaining high fundraising costs." Charity Watch found that HSUS spends as little as 50 percent of its budget on programs, and spend as much as 48 cents to raise every dollar.

Humanewatch ends the post with an editorial comment our readers will appreciate. "HSUS is a factory fundraising machine," they conclude, "and a deceptive one at that."
