There is an odd situation here on FlyerTalk because we prohibit commercial promotions but have approved charitable activities such as the one we're discussing, Kiva and others. The reconciliation is fairly simple, IMO. The rules don't apply touting our own vested commercial interests. The do not appear to prohibit charitable activities.
No person who has seen many NGO's in action can avoid healthy distrust. No responsible person can either dismiss all of them because some are venal, inefficient or ineffective.
I am reminded of the Meryl Streep character Sister Aloysius in "Doubt" who when faced with a ringing lack of evidence for her position said "But I have my certainty!".
