        I trust @JJWatt much more than the Red Cross or other "charities" that have 70%+ admin costs

        For the record, American Red Cross admin costs are 3.8%. Glad people are giving. Accountability and effectiveness are important.

        Watt is a very honorable man, already has a very good foundation, and won't waste it on overhead.

        Also, the ARC has stated that they cannot guarantee donations will only go to those impacted by Harvey. JJ Watt is making that guarantee.

        Maybe most of our "reputable" institutions have been been discredited? Having said that there are many reputable charities helping in Texas.

        Because some people don't trust any body/org right now. Maybe prefer going w/an individual who seems honest.
