To avoid conflicts of interest, FIAR does not solicit funds from pharmaceutical or nutriceutical companies.

Since George "Conman" Carter refuses to disclose the source of his money (e.g. "donations" to his non-profit FIAR), and given his sordid history here and elsewhere, we must assume that the truth is other than what he proclaims. Perhaps we will soon know the truth ... stay tuned.

Well, Diablo ol' chap... 501(c)(3)s usually don't have to disclose their donors' names to the public, in fact, donors may request total anonymity so that their names/addresses are not sold/given to other nonprofits. Major donors' names are given to the IRS, but that's not public record. Some donors' names *may* appear on what's called a Form 990, which is a public record. You can look up FIAR on http://www.guidestar.org, as you can any nonprofit you're interested in.

George M. Carter professes to be here to help and inform. He claims to help AIDS victims through his "nonprofit" organization. Yet he suddenly becomes silent when he is asked to account for the funds that donors generously provide to him. This is the Martin Delaney / Project Inform model of AIDS nonprofit anti-accountability. And, by the way, Delaney is on FIAR's Board of Directors. It should be no surprise that Delaney and Carter are both HIV-negative. >Some donors' names *may* appear on what's called a Form 990, which is a >public record.

I'm inclined to agree with you, AZT Murder. For over 20 years I've watched a megabillion dollar industry spring up around HIV/AIDS. Aside from the cost of the expensive HIV drugs, it seems that much if not most of the money is going for useless things like "education" and "counselors" and a whole lot of other stuff that has nothing to do with medical treatment. I'm certain a lot of the money raised by private "non-profit" organizations like GMCarter's goes to lobby the government for more public spending on HIV, it does not go to combat HIV directly, and in the process the directors and employees of such "non-profit" organizations DO make a profit in terms of their salaries. It is rather easy to take any profitable enterprise and make it "non-profit" simply by increasing salaries until the difference between revenues and expenses drops to zero. Since I'm Satan this week, here's a quote about psychic vampires by the founder of the Church of Satan: ----------------------------------------------------------------- "Every fund raising organization, be it a charitable foundation, community council, religious or fraternal association, etc., carefully selects a person who is adept at making others feel guilty for its chairman or coordinator. It is the job of this chairman to intimidate us into opening first our hearts, and then our wallets, to the recipients of their 'good will,' never mentioning that, in many cases, THEIR time is not unselfishly donated, but that they are drawing a fat salary for their 'noble deeds.' They are masters at playing upon the sympathy and consideration of responsible people." -- Anton LaVey; "The Satanic Bible" ----------------------------------------------------------------- >"AZT Murder" <redrumtza@alltel.net> wrote... >>>> The site makes reference to it being a "501(c)(3) not-for profit" [quoted text clipped - 48 lines] >-- Anton LaVey; "The Satanic Bible" >----------------------------------------------------------------- Beautiful ... >George M.

You accused me of being a liar in another post. So why bother? I've stated it quite specifically: FIAR does not and has not received funding from pharma or nutriceutical companies. Our funding has been through private donations (individuals) for the most part. And it has been minimal. So no, dear, there's no smoking gun here--or anywhere. You will no doubt continue to make your ridiculous accusations, misrepresent the organization's name, and otherwise continue to be a vicious person--a state of mind and being you apparently enjoy living with! So knock yourself out. George M. Carter >>George M. Carter professes to be here to help and inform. He >>claims to help AIDS victims through his "nonprofit" organization.

Nothing said above about pharma - and you know it, Mr. Carter. >Our funding has been through private donations (individuals) for the >most part. And it has been minimal. How much is "minimal" to you? And given your repeated habit of dodging the question, how can we be sure that "individuals" aren't corporate "individuals"? >You will no doubt continue to make your ridiculous accusations, I will no doubt continue to delve into yet another outrageous misdirection of resources to yet another trivial pursuit, at best. >misrepresent the organization's name Nothing misrepresented in your "Frod" organization that you haven't misrepresented. >and otherwise continue to be a vicious person In dealing with an HIV-negative sycophant like Carter, being called "vicious" is a true measure of success! snip >Nothing said above about pharma - and you know it, Mr. Carter. Yet another lie. >snip >>Nothing said above about pharma - and you know it, Mr. Carter. > >Yet another lie. So Carter snips the statement out in another classic Carter lie. >"AZT Murder" <redrumtza@alltel.net> wrote... >> [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] >so what is the law regarding donors' names being part of the >public record? While I cannot answer that accurately at this point, the actual point I am making is to establish that George Carter has repeatedly asserted here (and in his 501 (c) (3) Public Charity filings) that his organization FIAR was established to benefit people with AIDS. Carter's web site also claims that FIAR does not take pharma money. Since Carter doesn't have AIDS (nor HIV, according to him), then I believe he is obligated to disclose (1) how much money he gets, (2) who gives him that money, and (3) how is that money spent to benefit people with AIDS (that is, people other than himself). So far, Mr. Carter seems to have turned deaf-mute on all three of his obligations. When Carter DOES answer, he is simply evasive, as you can see in his posts today. That is outrageously irresponsible and dishonest for someone who asks for tax deductible charitable donations in the name of people with AIDS. Meanwhile, certain comments on Carter's FIAR website suggest that he is spending the money on himself (trips to India, Nepal, etc - and you can bet this Charity Queen is traveling first-class). Indeed, the filings by Carter for FIAR state that the funds will be used "for unrestricted operating expenses and special projects" |
