Review for ASPCA - American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, New York, NY, USA

Rating: 1 stars  

a relative made a mistake of responding to a phone call from a high pressure salesman from the ASPCA. The donation amounts in the beginning were small and then started to grow with each phone call. Now the calls are all out high pressure sales calls pressuring an eighty + old woman demanding a larger donation each time, It is not just once a month but several times a month the phone call go on.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

the letters keep coming seeking donations and they don't even acknowledge the help that she has been in the past. It is more of what have you done for me lately and the tone is that she hasn't done enough. I have encouraged her to give to her local shelter where the high pressure sales calls don't go on and on and on.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

less high pressure sales seeking to help animals and cut their expenses like the rest of us have had to do. Start by cutting back on the compensated high pressure salesmen and highly paid executives.
