True. Especially when they promise the money, they meet their commitments. A religious organisation wouldn’t say… promise $25 million to residential school survivors, raise less than $4M while spending $60M on fancy new churches and renovations… and then say “uh sorry, no more money!”
A religious organisation would never do that.
Maybe given the very grey history of religious humanitarianism, and the great role secular humanitarian organisations play in the world, it might be best to avoid staking that one in the ground.
