You Won’t Believe What This Biker Charity Is Doing With Your Money
Founder Danny Perkins lives in a million dollar condo in Miami and oversees a lucrative money making biker funded charity
When Orlando television news reporter Matt Grant started digging around into the finances of Daytona based BADD, (Bikers Against Drunk Drivers) he hit a stone wall, at least when he contacted the organization directly. BADD is a well known motorcycle charity in Central Florida and is known for it’s motorcycle giveaways. According to records filed with the State of Florida in the three years prior to 2014, the organization collected just over $2.6 million dollars. Those same records indicate the charity has returned just $20,300 to victims of drunk drivers, less than 1% of the money it collected. The president of Charity Navigator, one of the largest non-profit charity watch dogs in the United States said the numbers don’t add up and gives BADD a “zero” rating. Records indicate that the charity’s founder Danny Perkins owns a luxury condo on Miami’s South Beach worth almost a million dollars and which records indicate was paid for in cash and a 27 foot pleasure boat which is registered in the charity’s name. When asked how donations are spent, Perkins told WESH in an email “the charity speaks for itself,”claiming BADD has sent out 5 million flyers and used Facebook posts to encourage people not to drink and drive.

I just found out two of my credit cards I only used for raffles with BADD were used fraudulently and had to be canceled and reissued.
Close them down and remove charity status, and make them pay tax on the earnings. BAD people. I implore the governor to shut this charity down.
The numbers don’t add up.
They claim to give hundreds of thousands of dollars of cars & motorcycles. But give less than 2% to the people that the charity is supposed to benefit. If you want to support Danny Perkins lavish lifestyle go ahead and buy tickets. But be aware that you aren’t helping the folks that need help. Whether they give the prizes away I don’t know. But I would be very surprised if they did. The Charity Watch organization would rate this charity with a 0.
What goes around, come back around
After Doing A lot of Research.. I learned I have been waisting my money that could have been helping The Shriners or Any other place where they see the money and use it… Not Making there life into luxury.. I’m ashamed of BADD.. Danny Perkins Your Dirt..🤬
