Hey, I recently found this website, advocating for donations to pay for sarahs medical bills. At first I thought this was an actual charity set up in sarahs name. Unfortunately its not. They are asking YOU to pay for sarahs medical bills, which to be honest, i find offensive and objectionable.
I believe that sarahs sponsors should be fully accountable for the medical costs. If im not mistaken, she has had very large sponsership contracts in the past, making her millions of dollars ...
I advocate newschoolers to please NOT donate to giveforward.com , but instead invest in local ski programs for under-privileged youth, medical research , environmental causes, or any major charity in HER name. that she would be PROUD of ..
Im offended because I think this website is taking advantage of the death of sarah burke which has gone viral. I believe that this website is getting in the way of doing really amazing things for the truly underprivileged people on this earth. Not paying the medical bills of a wealthy person..
Disclaimer:
I have all the love and respect in the world for sarah. but ethics, charity and global development is a strong intrest of mine. If anyone wants to know where I am coming from... i suggest you read the book
