This petition was submitted during the 2017-2019 parliament
Rejected petition Make charities show the percentage of their revenue going to charity.
Many charities are taking money but actually using most of it on things like advertising. Although I don’t find anything wrong with using a portion of it in order to collect more there should either be a cap or charities should show the amount actually used on the cause they’re advertising.
