7. "Robin Hood has been able to provide over $14.7 million in grants to more than 140 different group"

Here we go again. Grants to subgroups. The favorite way to hide money.

"On the website it lists the various needs the money will go for...and the New York City groups requesting funds."

Typical BS in which these groups are loaded with six figure salaried employees and very little goes to action.

Nice little BS websites proclaiming their good deeds. This will be just like Katina and years from now there will still be decimated communities and average people while others will profit.
