It figures...They have been saying that 83% goes to programs..

"People who donate to Mothers Against Drunk Driving are told by the charity that most of the $12 million it raises annually is spent on good works — stopping drunk driving and helping families traumatized by fatal crashes.

But a Star investigation reveals most of the high-profile charity's money is spent on fundraising and administration, leaving only about 19 cents of each donor dollar for charitable works".

In many cases it's only 5 cents on the dollar.

Yeah. I guess the sad part is they have to lie about it. It surely doesn't say much for the loved one's they lost. Sounds more like pocket lining to me.
