[font "Comic Sans MS"][#800000]You seem to be hung up on the Clinton Foundation for some reason. And the rating services are giving them a rating based on a specific set of criteria - and the criteria differs for each rating service. None of them used criteria about how the donations were obtained. And therein lies the problem with the Clinton Foundation. Enough said.
Those major charities actually helping the victims of Hurricane Harvey are not seen as collecting ill-gotten funds from any source and any or all of the three watchdog groups mentioned by CR would be good sources for checking to see which charity will make the best use of your donations.
I'm stepping down off my soap box and will not make any further comments on the subject. I respect your right to choose any charity you deem appropriate for whatever purpose you wish to pursue. I'll continue to use CR as a starting point for such issues. Have a great day.[/#][/font]
