Wasted relief with archaic fundraising practices - Field Worker Food For The Poor Employee Review

The egregious tactics of their marketing campaigns, both in how they treat their subjects and how they treat their publishing, leave a sick feeling in my stomach. They hope that photos of crying babies will pry you from your wallet but they go over the line in producing those tears. The campaigns are nothing more than a fashion magazine shoot with poor people as the stand-ins for the models. They treat their subjects with no respect for their condition, only for their dollar producing value. They spend an exorbitant amount of fundraising dollars on keeping themselves flush. The CEO Robin Mahfood makes $350,000 a year, pure donations that are meant to feed those in need go to this man's bank account. I witnessed first class flight purchases to international destinations, for whole teams of Food For The Poor travelers and many extravagant corporate meals at the finest restaurants. Five star hotels are the norm for those visiting the poor they "serve". Do yourself a favor and don't take this job! If you have a good heart and a clean conscience, you will be tested with your work here. If you truly care about helping people, there are far better organizations to take your efforts.
