Well, if you are, step up, Brothers. Hats, T-shirts, golf shirts emblazoned with this slogan with 10% of the profits going to the Twin Towers Orphans Fund. Nice backstory on this organization too. Surpringly enough for me, this isn't a joke.

A whole $.10 out of every dollar. So far they are up $312.00. Nice Net Profit Margin (EBT+) if you can get it. Orphans = $31.20 / Foundation = $280.80 of the proceeds thus far. But a nice trend seems to be structuring.

Is this a joke or another Nigerian initiative, except the sentence structure finally seems to be solid and the website is OK. Where does one sign up?

How are they promoting this site besides on CRT? I think they gotta spam. Do you think they would mind? Do they need any help to get it right? Consulting services available.

This Website/ organization is 100% legit. I saw a Philly Inquirer article about it, accessed the site and thought I'd share it. Cynicism is perhaps justified but go to the home page and click on "News" at the bottom--Inky and USA Today articles are hyper-linked. Not a scamster in sight.

For $.10 on the dollar I really don't have the time or sensitivity to check out their website.

Lots of luck with your initiative.

Once again, Brothers, I have nothing to do with this--it's presented purely as information to the Brotherhood, especially the straight-up capitalists among this. I personally am a believer in a mixed-economy set-up (a semi-socialist if you will). This was my giveback to those who create or manage wealth--the capitalists. No spam, no scam. I hope we're clear on that now.
