It&#39;s you hiding behind &quot;fair view in news.&quot;  &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Nobody else is self-righteous  enough to believe that the small list of questionable contributions you listed qualify as being: &quot;Obviously committed to community support programs.&quot;&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;C&#39;mon!  Those small contributions were all made to orgs and people with some attachment to you!&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;It doesn&#39;t take an accounting degree to see that those nominal &quot;verifiable contributions&quot; are insignificant in the wake of the windfall spending demonstrated by RF.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;No reasonable logical or legitimate operation could remotely define or justify the exorbitant expenditures racked up by your foundation as being &quot;wisely used&quot;.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Tell me, why does a leader of an organization to alleviate poverty need customized suits, and monogrammed/engraved jewelry???&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;I defy you to name one way that the money you spent to enrich yourself was an advancement for people without?   &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;The &quot;vision&quot; of Michael Russell was to enrich Michael Russell.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;The &quot;community support&quot; was  Michael Russell.  &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;It seems Michael, or should I say: fair view in news: you didn&#39;t even have a roof over your head, and no form of income before you decided to take from the rich and give to the poor; YOU.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;An accounting of all legitimate foundations small and large shows that all contributions are accounted for and do not benefit any of the so called executives.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Your continued rants of RF&#39;s efforts to alleviate poverty are a SLAP IN THE FACE to legitimate orgs like the United Way and others who scrimp by on meager budgets; accounting for every penny to meet their goals.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;NO LAVISH OFFICES, NO FLEET OF VEHICLES, NO CUSTOMIZED SUITS, NO JEWELRY, NO SELF-INDULGENT BANQUETS-JUST TRUE COMMITTMENT TO THEIR GOALS.  &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;The recent passing of Lucious Newsom... is a testament to true selfless devotion to alleviation of poverty.  &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;That man didn&#39;t even fix his own teeth...

And the Grant site shows interest in supporting grass root agencies, with an intended date for request for proposals.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;It appears start-up capital was used wisely to develop offices, staff, and operations, in addition to providing community support.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;It is reported that ongoing efforts related to project funding continues, and will come to fruition. If these grant opportunities can be executed, Indiana would experience the most stimulation to the alleviation of poverty, and many of the social ills stemming from poverty.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Bishop Russell is the visionsry of these community projects of support, and I applaud this blog for reflecting in the news, this Foundation&#39;s acts of kindness.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12703782/4258008539472727353/comments/default/3316310280662619699'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12703782/4258008539472727353/comments/default/3316310280662619699'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://advanceindiana.blogspot.com/2008/07/who-is-russell-foundation-helping.html?showComment=1217180820000#c3316310280662619699' title=''/><author><name>Fair View In News</name><uri>https://www.blogger.com/profile/08633532640271670960</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://advanceindiana.blogspot.com/2008/07/who-is-russell-foundation-helping.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-4258008539472727353' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12703782/posts/default/4258008539472727353' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty name="blogger.itemClass" value="pid-1778022853"/><gd:extendedProperty name="blogger.displayTime" value="12:47 PM GMT-5"/></entry></feed>
