soup kitchen suffering because of ryan's lie

It's not news, I'm sure, that Vice-Presidential candidate Paul Ryan, in an attempt to appear charitable, burst into a soup kitchen unannounced, and picked up a pot and started washing it. The soup kitchen had no idea it was happening. Ryan's fraud became a news item.

Now, according to this item at AddictingInfo, the Mahoning County St. Vincent de Paul Soup Kitchen is losing donors because they outed the lie. According to the article:
Brian J. Antal, president of the Mahoning County St. Vincent De Paul Society, confirmed that donors have begun an exodus in protest over Ryan’s embarrassment. The monetary losses have been big. “It appears to be a substantial amount,” Antal said. “You can rest assured there has been a substantial backlash.” He added “I can’t say how much [in] donations we lost. Donations are a private matter with our organization.”

The article gives a link to the Facebook page, where you can "Like" the charity, and also gives an address where donations will be sent. I'll get a check out tonight.

There's a picture, but I refuse to assist in perpetrating Ryan's fraud by posting it.
