I give periodically to some organizations.
I will not name them but the one whose logo is a red cross sent me a mail about a week ago stating there is a "critical shortage" of blood in our area. please consider signing up for a blood drive.
So I went to the link they gave and found the page, it said search for a blood drive near you.
So I searched for blood drive locations within 10 , then 25 miles of my home 20 miles from downtown Houston.
Within 2 weeks, then within 4 weeks and so on out to 3 months ahead. NO search results found every time.
So I emailed them and said what kind of critical shortage is there if you are not taking donations? Your website shows no drive within 25 miles and 3 months.
And a week later I got a email stating "We sincerely apologize that you had difficulty locating drives near your area. I have searched the website and am providing a link below that includes the closest drives to your zip code within the next two weeks."
same **** page I complained about. Same no results found.
So This is a completely assinine situation. They are wasting my money asking for donations at nonexistant blood drives and their customer service is incompetent.
I'm not contributing to them anymore.
