Lamar Odom's charitable endeavors are getting slam dunked.
Cathy's Kids, a foundation he started in 2004 after losing his mother
to stomach cancer, is being accused of not giving a cent to cancer
research in the nine years it has been operating.
Although the charity's mission is supposed to be "making a positive impact on the lives of under-privileged children, as well as targeting a disease that has played a significant role in [Odom's] life," it only seems he's kept up half of that bargain. Cathy's Kids' mission statement continues, "Lamar lost his mother to stomach cancer and subsequently is committed to help causes that are focused on finding a cure and helping people who suffer from the disease. Lamar is focused on ensuring that funds are available for under-privileged youth that live in the inner cities of New York and Los Angeles."
The latter part seems to be the one promise he has kept.
