You're not really asking a question.....you're unfairly making an accusation.

If I'm alive for $50K in the last leg of a Pick-6 and am alive only to a 1:5 shot and offer you a free 10% of the ticket am I any less generous if the horse loses?

Whether they gave any money or not, and I would bet a lot of money that donations of some kind were already made by members of IEAH, they brought something very nice into the severely damaged lives of some unfortunate people. Who are any of us to stoop so low as to be critical of them over this situation?

If you take cheap shots at anyone then it marginalizes anything you might say that has validity.

I believe that they said they would donate even if they did not receive any purse money.
