Lady Gaga's Mother Responds to Born This Way Foundation Scrutiny

Straight from HuffPost Blog and sounding like the seasoned politician weaving his or her buzz words to get your votes.  

Lady Gaga, Born This Way Foundation


In other words, all that money donated still went toward nothing except an online map, online games, a few Tweets and Facebook posts, and spreading awareness.  The bill is still too high. Cynthia states that they're not a grant maker to fund other charities even though they gave $5000 out of the millions to something or someone. She also states that they conduct their own charitable work directly.  So people donate funds to the tune of millions of dollars; and she further claims that they fund their own work.  Which raises another question - if they fund their own work, where is the donation money and what are they doing or are going to do with it?  Is it sitting in a bank account somewhere collecting interest and dust?  Is what Cynthia claims the foundation is doing worth the costs?  Does she want us to believe that posting a few social media messages and other vague initiatives costs $2.1 million? Great story Cynthia! You should write a book. It seems the only people benefiting from the foundation were the lawyers, publicists, consultants and of course Stefani.

The Born This Way Foundation was busted, plain and simple. Clearly the foundation isn't having that much of an impact otherwise the media would have been "kind" to overlook their mass spending and lack of work.

Lady Gaga had no problem posting an open letter to slam Kelly Osbourne for choosing a less passionate path in life but she couldn't post a letter defending her own foundation and it's actions. Her mother had to do it for her.
