Sorry, I am :dunce: & don't know how to link, but here is my response from Compassion. Anyone feel up to posting a Compassion link on an anti-Bush site & see how quickly they yank it?
Thank you for your recent email. Compassion does not have a partnership with bushfish.org nor is there a chance of partnership in the future. As a non-profit, Compassion is non-political and we do not engage in political actions. We have sponsors and supporters from all ranges of political viewpoints but who share the common vision of releasing children from poverty. This site, bushfish.org, choose of their own volition to donate proceeds to Compassion.
Just because an organization decides to donate to Compassion does not mean that Compassion has entered into a partnership with them. We do try to keep track of "undesired" links that are on pages that would be against our mission (for example, if a porn site linked to us, we would take action to have it removed), however, we make our link available for sponsors and donors to promote Compassion on their own web pages.
Compassion makes no secret of the fact that we are Christian in word and deed. Should someone visit us from this site (or others) and they do not agree with our mission, values and statement of faith, there is nothing forcing them to sponsor with us. If this group wishes to encourage it's supporters to consider Compassion, that is their prerogative, just as it would be yours or an organization that shared your views. Compassion will continue to welcome sponsors who desire to release children from poverty through one-on-one relationships.
Thank you for sharing your concerns. We are thankful for your sponsorship and the difference you are making in (child)'s life. I appreciate your concern for children in poverty around the world. If there is anything else I can assist you with, please let me know.
