Macauley was born on December 11, 1923, in Manhattan. Raised in Greenwich, Connecticut, he attended Phillips Academy and then Yale University, where he shared a room with George H. W. Bush.
Macauley founded Americares in 1982, a year after he organized shipments of humanitarian aid to Poland at the behest of Pope John Paul II and had organized an airlift to provide medicine to victims of the Lebanese Civil War.
I had to stop reading when I saw the picture of the little Thalidamide child. I broke down. The head of Americares asked a US ambassador to allow Ambros to emigrate to the US. "Dr. Otto Ambros worked during the war for I.G. Farben, the firm that developed the Zyklon-B gas used in the extermination camps." He also invented Thalidamide for the Nazis. Horrors.
It probably will not all end.....but hopefully with more eyes on these organizations it will be cut down by letting people know that many charities are just fronts to keep their heinous operations alive. Stop Giving. That is what we have done. We give food donations and money to our own food pantries, donate a coat or two for a homeless person or child. This is where people can do good. Do it no matter where you live. Foreign Countries should do this as well. Give to your Own Community.
I have stopped giving to large chatities as well. I used to support world vision and unicef for years but now I know all this and about Unicef making child porn in the basement of their headquarters.........Id never even heard of Americares until yesterday....the people in these countries where these charities work must think westerners are demons. No wonder Duerte wanted the US out the phillipines....
Yes, there are many reasons to not give to unicef many stars have been chosen to represent them Danny Kaye who is a known Bi-sexual, Peter Ustinov who also has been suspected of being a pedophile. We can suspect that many heads of charities have been compromised. That is why I say, Give in Your Own Back Yard.

I agree. This is so disturbing. Another list of evil perverts and unfathomable crimes I'd never heard of. When will it end...😩
