    They really put a dent in the poverty here helping out those 11 families.

    Then they will spend exponentially more money making sure the press gives them a good ol' pat on the back. :meh:

    I guess I view this as a positive vs negative. This appears to be a private company donating what they can afford to give. Downplaying this is kind of like degrading me for only giving away 2 free meals to homeless kids and not feeding more. I'm sympathetic for all the others but 2 maxed out my budget. I applaud all donations regardless of size. Maybe I've misinterpreted the article?
