Fund Raising Fraud in Your Community

Domestic Violence Trudy W Schuett writes "A hint for some of us activists from Sam and Bunny Sewell: Recently we have been sending the below notice to City Councilmen, County Commissioners, law enforcement agencies, churches, etc. We access a women's shelter web page in Anytown, USA. If that web page contains the usual lies, we start bombarding community leaders with this short note. We are not sure how much good it does, but boy do people respond!"

Fund raising fraud in your community

You do not know us. We are clergy from Naples, Florida who are also marriage and family counselors. As part of our research on family violence we discovered a web page for an organization in your community, The Family Refuge Center. http://www.familyrefugecenter.com/ . We thought it was appropriate to alert you that this family violence web page is a scam.

When we read their web page it seemed more like a front for the anti-marriage, anti-family feminists. Their message is blatantly sexist. They have misrepresented the truth about family violence. If they are raising funds by distorting the truth, they are subject to charges of fund raising fraud.

We publish a report on the Internet that contains a family violence bibliography, which clearly demonstrates that gender advocates have severely distorted this issue. The aggregate sample size in the reviewed studies exceeds 70,000. ( ©Martin S. Fiebert, Ph.D. )

The year 2001 edition of the Family Violence Report from Family Resources and Research has been released. It may be quoted, linked and copied without further permission. The Internet version is available at:

Also included is an article written by Sally L. Satel, M.D., about the dangers of present family violence policy. Dr. Satel is a psychiatrist at the Yale School of Medicine.

I recently visited www.womb.org (women opposed to male bashing) and saw the following quote, which I believe anyone attempting to shed the light of truth on any topic has experienced:

"Perhaps the sentiments contained in the following pages are not yet sufficiently fashionable to procure them general favor; a long habit of not thinking a thing wrong gives it a superficial appearance of being right, and raises at first a formidable outcry in defence of custom."
-- Thomas Paine

Thanks to all you truth-seekers out there.

Trudy:

I'm interested in more information on "Boy do people respond." :) Do they respond positively or negatively? With open minds or narrow ones? Just curious. Thanks for this post.

Well, I can't speak for Rev. Bunny! In my own small community of Yuma AZ, I've had both 'nasty notes' and kudos on another matter. Haven't done this one yet. Our shelters don't have websites--sometimes I think I'm the only one in the county with a 'puter!
