Thanks for the reply. I'm wondering what would be the effect of organizations guaranteeing (suppose they could guarantee) that 92% of your dollar is going directly to the cause and 8% is going for administration costs, and stating that upfront? Would that give you more confidence instead of them saying "_all proceeds_ go to..." when you know they have employees and admin costs?

Thanks a lot for the detailed answer! And great job taking care of your second grandfather!

One thought of yours regarding charities in general that I find particularily interesting is:

> you've done your research and you know at least 80% plus of your dollar is going to the actual cause

Hey, this is great. Really like the idea of training an AI model for this.

I did somethin similar, although much simpler, without AI, for layoffs :-)

Based on just a dozen layoff announcements from real world companies, randomly ("manually") generated announcements.

It's great to find someone being iritated by the same bland corporate speak and answering it with similar kind of dry humor : - )
