I just received a telephone donation solicitation for Breast Cancer.

A noble cause indeed.

I asked what percentage of my donation would go to the Breast Cancer entity.

5%. Five percent of my donation would go to breast cancer help and research and the private solicitation company gets 95% of my donation.

OK. This is capitalism. And "helping" breast cancer.

But really. Are any here in the Lakes Region falling for this?
