The LDS / Mormon church has an estimated worth $293 BILLION (source). They don’t need to ask for money. This is marketing, not compassion and not charity.
Yes, but this isn’t a fundraiser that was started by the church (or with church funding) but rather it was started and donated to by the members themselves.
It’s a wonderful expression of extraordinary human compassion, and as usual, met with hatred and cynicism. It brought me a measure of faith in humanity, despite being surrounded by evidence of human wretchedness. Thanks for posting this, I slept after having read it.
