How can a prestigious, established and well-known entity like the Catholic Relief Services be denied participation in the United Charity Miles Program????

I've been working with Richard Balmadier at CRS to have them gain participation so I and others can donate miles to them, yet they received the run around for months and the a form letter denial?!!

1KVoice - could you chime in please?
