Not in my book!  They have the highest administrative expenses leaving less
money going directly to the poor folks who need help!  Going back a couple of
years, they had an "interim" CEO who served something like 8 months and got a
"golden parachute" of over a million bucks!    There are LOTS better choices
than the Red Cross!
