    That's so generous of her. To give away her ex-husband's money.

      She could easily keep every penny. Morally and Legally it's all her money. Instead of putting her down, you should uplift individuals like her

      @@MarioMang1one When my husband passed away, I inherited a small sawmill from his estate, employing 225 people. Did I build that business? No. My husband did. When the workers went on strike, my attorneys and I sought a reasonable agreement, but the union leadership was completely unreasonable. My husband built that firm-not the union thugs trying to strong-arm us.
      On legal advice, we discontinued the health insurance plan as it was and cut their pay as punishment. We informed the union that if they elected new leadership willing to negotiate, we would restore the insurance. This strategy worked. We succeeded in bringing in more reasonable union leaders who agreed to the necessary cuts I demanded. As part of the deal, they received personal pay raises, which were kept off the books. By doing this, we were able to protect my husband’s legacy and keep the business afloat.
      Behind the scenes, we also addressed the troublemakers, offering them severance packages in exchange for signing NDAs, effectively removing the obstacles to progress. Unions, in my view, are a cancer on successful businesses across this nation, stifling innovation and growth. I eagerly look forward to President Trump taking action to expand “right to work” laws wherever possible.
      I protected my husband's hard work from these greedy layabouts who took no risks. Invested no time or energy and wanted all the profits. We then "black balled" all the trouble makers with other mill owners and those men can complain b/c if they do - the NDA lawsuit will bankrupt them and put their kids into foster care. They deserve to be unemployed because they try to steal.

      It's her money Ethel. Her ex-husband has his own money. She was the first "employee" of Amazon when it started, delivering packages to the post office, etc.

    She is wasting her money. Non profits are not a reliable or smart investment. She should manage these funds herself, directing an initiative extremely closely and carefully, rather than just throwing money at corrupt NGOs.

      Agreed 👍. NGOs have morphed into a fervorous leftist reservoir to keep them afloat between liberal administrations. I would be careful about background checking the “charity” and then give the money to a non-“progressive” church with people helping someone other than themselves..

That's what my mom used to say about people who talked about you. He couldn't put a pimple on her butt. I wish she would run for President.Maybe we'd see a real world. Keep up the good work.God knows how good you are.
