Is Lamar Odom's Cancer Charity a Fraud?

lamar his mother passed away from stomach cancer when he was younger and dot inspired him to start a charity known as kathy's kid me out was meant to help underprivileged kids and also raise money for akira for cancer care is now being a investigated by is p_m_ they're doing investigative report on his charity because they're finding that the charity hasn't given udya into cancer research on that but the charity has given some money to underprivileged kids so to give you some specifics acb eight years worth of tax filings indicated that the charity raised about two point two million dollars yes a lot of mine at is a lot of money one point six million which is of course a sizable chunk uh... went toward uh... that to uh... elite basketball teams for for kids are so so that's good you wanted to help for what purpose so random no it's probably not probably somebody got some talk about money running those leaks wearing avenue of kids it doesn't add anything to do is cancer which is that you know why this isp investigations taking place in the first place uh... but another thing that seems a little questionable is another huge chunk of of the funds went toward one of his friends collapse is basically uh... managing that the charity and uh... he was receiving about seventy two thousand dollars between two thousand four and twenty eleven so now look at seventy two thousand over seven years tried right so uh... it's the sound reasons first seller whatever it is but all this the prom because none of the money went to cancer and there is two point two million dollars any edits it didn't go to that cause right in twenty eleven and a show the debt two hundred fifty six thousand dollars uh... you have that much like that's a problem with whom they don't know how to spend money lady just added a note of it and they like it and would you get pat would you do for cancer alright ever got a lot of cancer annemarie too and for two thousand and yap so and then there are a number of other issues that i want to get into very quickly on so apparently they have continue doing fundraising four then sherri even though other reports indicating that the charity has been dormant for years they have really done much in the years uh... one way that they're raising funds for the charity is they're having alkaloid card ashton salsa lover used clothes so she has a uses ie closer she saw a nightly basis as a hundred percent the proceeds will go toward the charity wealth that's the case why has the chair tv doormat for years now if there's a lot of questions raised about this and ami i'd know is cells like is a general thing if she's selling some of our closing unitary sells their hearts to the right place definitely something useful is this kind of weird as t_v_ but late not it's kind of weird thing to buy but anyway who cares is always going to replace but again none of the hind to cancer and it's already dorman so why you raise the money for it now lake there so intermediate involvements and it's probably mystery if they're not doing it for the money and now right now so my guess is somebody is misleading them within their circles right and being overly fair to them i think in saying that but they got a it's up to them the manager you can't just take people's millions of dollars to rate though most people probably worked really hard and gave it to a charity you got at least spend big good percentage you know doing work i can certainly you can deal with the cerebellum by richie takes ninety four sum of money and doesn't give it to the state of purpose is that all over consultant friends et cetera biggest originate by her own books alert russia's against consultants that have already has a we're interesting so this is very questionable definitely questionable now yes can i try to contact at a spokesperson from kathy's kids uh... but nobody whatever sponsor class so uh... and he has been reporter was doing a walk-through interview with lamar odom and and kind of question about it and lamar odom got very defensive and shut down the interview he later called the s_p_ espy in reporter and scheduled an ad follow-up interview to apologize for the way he reacted in the locker room however he refused to answer any questions regarding the charity andy said quote it's my money and he refused to dot explaining further but my understanding is that the some of it is not his exactly that's bad news it's just not the right way to handle it and like i said if you are public figure in your putting your name on a charity it is your responsibility to make sure that that charity is operating as an tically as possible
