With most charity collectors getting paid a hefty "wage", where is the money really going? Which charities actually give all the money to the people they are collecting for?

I have looked into this question quite in detail and no there is not one that I have researched yet in the last 3 years that give 100% of our money to the ones we are giving it to.Actually most dont even receive 50% of the money.Even the national phone charities with all their special guests on the TV giving their time for nothing dont even get 50%, the management get paid outrageous amounts instead. Did everyone know that the other issue I have is that they dont raise funds to cure deseases , just find treatments for them as that would do them out of a job,and those that need transplants of any kind have to have a healthy body as they dont want bad results because that effects the amount of income they get donated.
