b0tanicalspirit:the-dark-sea:strangenewclassrooms:freemindfreebody:usbdongle:golbatsforequality:Equality Golbat: “When you donate hair to Locks of Love, there is an 80% chance it will wind up in the garbage.”I can get similar odds by literally throwing my hair at a garbage can.Statistically, a charity that uses less than two thirds of its donation money for its central mission is in the bottom 10% of charities, in terms of efficiency and fiscal responsibility. Locks of Love uses less than one third of the hair they receive. (and I’m pretty sure they aren’t using the hair to buy TV spots.)I should also mention that they actually don’t give people hair. They sell it. What good is a charity that doesn’t give free things to people in need? That’s not a charity. That’s a for-profit business.I recommend Pantene Beautiful Lengths.–Nidoqueen[here’s] a reliable source on Forbes.com Do not give them your precious locks!Wigs for kids is also great. When I donated I went through them because they were the only group that would accept donations of just 8” (and hair that was dyed.) Either way, don’t do locks of love.Spread the word, because people still think Locks of Love is THE hair charity, when in reality, they rather suck.slurpeelovinI still have the hair that I cut off, but it’s dyed so I can’t donate it to them. :/ locks of love takes dyed hair. I know it sucks but I would rather have 20% of my hair actually go to someone than me not even sending it to anyone. -- source link
