    Wow, you commenters are pretty evil. Way to show Perez by commenting hateful things on his wall. I'm sure he completely cares what you say.

    I discovered that Perez receives a rather large percentage of the donations made to these charities. WHAT A FUCKING CUNT. This is the last time I visit this hypocritical wank site

    As Ms. Wheelchair Massachusetts, I am just glad that Perez put anything about the disabled out there because most of the country has forgotten about us since Christopher Reeve passed away. So GO PEREZ for even posting a link to Reeve's site

    Perez does not get 60% of the donations at all. At least not to this one. I'm actually a supporter to this cause, it is very real. Their real website is www.christopherreeve.org if you would rather get info or donate from there.

    Damn that's fucked. No wonder all of a sudden he has all these random charities to donate to. He's lucky he's found ways to make money like this, otherwise hed be stuck ringing people at starbucks and wouldn't be able to afford hair dye. Perez is not funny or clever in his comments or videos. He's just an annoying fat queen. He's lucked out in gettin gossip info fast. That's the only reason I come to this site

    Perez gets zero of the funds donated via the Chris Reeve website. zero.

    This is a gracious gesture and the money goes to continuing the discoveries and even the occasional cure for paralysis which the Reeve Foundation accomplishes . Please do not be cynical.

    Thanks to all who donate - The Reeve Foundation will treat your donations like gold and grant the funds to the finest scientists on the planet. We are getting people out of chairs today- and we are finding braekthroughs at every turn.

    And we will do so until everone stands

    bless you for participating.

    false charity is LAME. i don't think the link is fake but i do believe perez's attempt at posting links to a different charity everyday is a LAME attempt to improve his image. that is what false charity is. it's so obvious and pathetic. if you really cared about a charity you would pick one that means something to you and stick it in the sidebar. stop spamming us with charity links you don't care about. YOUR INSINCERITY IS TRANSPARENT.

    Ummmm from someone who works in fundraising , It is highly illegal for any non-profit to make any kind of deal where someone is to profit from donations. Not only is it a downright lie that Perez receives a percentage of donations , it is hurtful to the causes at hand. All of the causes , organizations, and foundations Perez has advertised hold a 501(c)3 status. This status granted by the federal government , allows these organizations to deem there donations as tax deductible. However along with this status comes a yearly audit by the IRS , where they look over every last penny that the organization made and spent. This makes your allegations of 60% deals impossible . I understand that many people have hateful things to say about Perez but please do not try to tarnish the image of these great causes. For more detailed information on all these organizations please check out charity navigator , which gives you a detailed report on how they spend their money

    Hey Perez,
    My 13 year old son has a spinal cord injury and I thank you for adding this to your website. My son is actually featured on the Christopher Reeve website it's an old picture from when he was 10 under Active Living Biographies but it is definitely not a fake website. They are doing great things and one day will help fund the cure for spinal cord injuries. For all of the people out there making negative comments just know that an injury can happen so easily and quickly and does not discriminate. Take care and hug the ones you love because life is short.

    Reeve said it was HIS fault not the horse's. This is why we need stem-cell research but religious douches always have a problem with it……

    Chris and Dana Reeve were a love story for the ages because of the way they lived their lives after the accident. I wish nothing but faith, hope and love for their two sons and daughter, as well as the worthy recipients of any charity bearing Reeve's name. Ashe, Ashe.

    This charity helped my brother, we even got to meet Reeve after my bro was
    in a car crash, and the work they do gave him a helping hand picking up the pieces and getting his confidence back.

    If you are too thick to check your facts before declaring this organisation as 'fake charity' then you should shut the fuck up.
