Non-notable organization and I haven't found any reliable third-party sources at all. I found zero results with Google News and Google News archives, there is nothing to support this content aside from the group's website. SwisterTwister talk 02:41, 23 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete This charity seems like it ought to be notable; it claims 50 employees and four offices, and their webpage lists decent sources [1]. However, it appears that the group was investigated and raided by the feds, and three principals were indicted for a number of things involving misuse of foundation money to make investments in Iran and support a radical ayatollah there.[2] These charges, rather than their charitable activities, appear to be their main "claim to fame" [3] and should be in the article, but IMO the coverage hasn't really been enough to be able to add it to the article in a fair and NPOV way. Plus there are BLP issues with writing about charges as opposed to convictions. Probably best just to delete it. --MelanieN (talk) 03:09, 30 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete bur with no prejudice against rep\creation if they can find material to support notability. I don't want to say for certain that there won't be any, but I haven't see it. The charges are just charges, unproven, and cannot be made the focus of the article -- and are not of sufficient importance to justify an article if there would not be one otherwise. If an article is justified by their work, then they should be included in due proportion. DGG ( talk ) 07:19, 10 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
