I clicked on it and it went right into Anderson Cooper talking about it. It did have a 30 seconds commercial before it started. I know DAV is good, I am a life-time member and a member of my local American Legion. Here is a news link: http://www.nonprofitquarterly.org/po...-funds-go.html |

Ed, I didn't find any unusual on the PVA. I would ask how much they send on administrative costs. I think anything above 10% is getting questionable.
