Legit Foundations or not? Need a few diggers I smell smoke. Child trafficking and abuse is front and center with Q and POTUS. In researching foundations I came across something that just struck me as odd and I'd like you to look at what I've found and voice an honest opinion. In this case I found 3 organizations that have the word "Courage" as part of their names. Children and/or sex seems to be a common thread. Let's start with this one, Courage Worldwide. Look first at their mission statement: https://courageworldwide.org/about-us/mission-vision/ Seems noble. Now look at the founder Jenny Williamson. https://courageworldwide.org/about-us/founder/ Again, sounds authentic but I can't see where she graduated from college. She does seem to be engaged in getting recognition. One award she received caught my attention because it was given to her by Robert Mueller when he was Director of the FBI. https://courageworldwide.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/ABOUT-FOUNDER-Jenny-Williamson-FBI-Agent.jpgJPG Adding to this, I look at their board members and especially Dawn Clayton. This is what they say about her: https://courageworldwide.org/about-us/board-of-directors/ "Dawn is the General manager of Thunder Valley Casino Resort in Lincoln, California. She is a 33-year veteran of the gaming/hospitality industry, ranging across Commercial, Cacinos, Riverboat and Native American operations." Hmmm. Gaming and child trafficking? And digging a bit deeper from her FB page I see ties to Chinese which may be totally legit. But these guys look like enforcers https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10213547679267710&set=pb.1274071806.-2207520000.0.&type=3&theater Also there's nothing on her FB that would give you the impression she has any serious interest in kids. Yet she's on this Courage Worldwide Board of Directors? More importantly, nobody on the board of directors has a well demonstrated background in the fields of child psychology, psychiatry, etc. Rather, it's a hodgepodge of people that are not at a level I would expect of a credible worldwide organization devoted to helping children recover from horrific abuse. There's only one Advisory Board Member - Dr. Benjamin Keyes. https://courageworldwide.org/about-us/board-of-directors/ He seems legit but looking into his background here's what I see: "Dr. Keyes received his Doctorate in Rehabilitation Counseling in 1985 from International College. There's an IC in California that opened in 1993 so that can't be it. There's one in Beirut that doesn't offer the courses or degree so that can't be it. There's one in LA that is unaccredited and very small. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_College,_Los_Angeles More interesting is Dr. Keyes background. He spent time in China which led to this: "Dr Keyes and his colleagues have received the Richard A. Kluft Research Award for work and research in the People’s Republic of China from the Journal of Trauma and Dissociation and the International Society for the Study of Trauma and Dissociation. His work dispelled the Cultural Model of Dissociation and has resulted in Dissociative Disorders being treated throughout mental health facilities in China." This took me to China where I found Golden Courage International https://www.goldencourage.com/ This organization purports to help Chinese children of poor families. Looks legit but we've learned that where there are disadvantaged kids, homeless or orphaned children there are often hidden pedos lurking about. Going back to Dr. Keyes, his bio includes "Currently Dr. Keyes is an Assoc. Professor, Director of Training and Internship and Director for the Center for Trauma and Resiliency Studies at Divine Mercy University in Arlington, VA..As head of the Center for Trauma and Resiliency Studies" Have you ever heard of this University? https://divinemercy.edu/ It's a Catholic related school that deals primarily with psychology and counseling. It's Center for Trauma and Resiliency Studies page describes it in part "Traumatic events include natural disasters, man-made crisis and accidents as well as human trafficking, domestic violence, terrorism, refugee displacement, and chronic poverty. Current research projects include a 5 year longitudinal study with survivors of human trafficking utilizing a Christian treatment model for intervention and healing, the effects of trauma training with professionals working with Syrian refugees, and compassion fatigue levels with both short and long term intervention with the population affected by trauma." On one hand we know the Catholic Church has many problems with pedophile priests and many issues regarding Pope Francis and here the Church has a University in Arlington, VA (now part of the DC swamp) devoted to psychology and counseling of kids traumatized by trafficking in disaster areas using a "Christian treatment model" hmm? Finally seaching with the word "Courage" led me to this: Courage International https://couragerc.org/. They describe themselves as "A Roman Catholic apostolate for men and women who experience same-sex attractions and those who love them." Now maybe all this stuff is legit and totally above board. But call me skeptical. I'm curious what others think. Maybe I'm too close to have an unbiased opinion but when I see these kinds of organizations with similar names, all dealing in one way or another with trafficking, international disaster areas, and people with little or no legitimate background in child psychiatry, small or unknown schools, Communist China...I'm skeptical especially when I see a photo of Bob Mueller giving an award. We know that Mueller left pedos off the hook. So, what say you? Am I seeing things that aren't there or are they hiding in plain sight? One final point. What started me on this dig was something I saw awhile back regarding SSRS, a research and polling organization that did a poll for CNN. https://ssrs.com/about/ In looking at people on their staff and their backgrounds it was obvious they were all left wing elite types. One of their people was Melissa Herrmann who has worked with the UN, USAID, World Vision and "has a passion for children-at-risk and social justice". "Melissa is currently working as the Program Director/Executive Director for Courage Worldwide, a non-profit organization that builds homes for minor girls rescued out of sex trafficking" So why is this person working for a polling firm conducting polls for CNN?
