Abusing Donations, 501c Status and Kenyan Orphans

On March 12th I started volunteering at an American-owned orphanage in Kenya. On April 13th, we wrote the letter you will find below. The problems at the orphanage were so fundamental that we believed it best to shut down the orphanage and transfer the children to more respectable institutions.

For 6 months, I did everything in my power to achieve our goal. Contacted government agencies/NGOs/the media, set up websites, spammed donors with the facts... in the short-run, the results were disappointing. The Kenyan delegation that visited the orphanage thought it was sufficient that the orphanage buildings were re-painted. The prominent Kenyan journalist to whom I had given an interview asked for a bribe to publish the story. The donors got mad at me for sending them an email! The California Attorney General's Office and the Internal Revenue Service did not write me a single line back.
