We have a weird box o' snacks on the top of the fridge at work, that has some generic charity wording on the front. On the side they have, in very fine print, a breakdown of their donation accounting: overhead, 80%, transportation for refilling the boxes, 17%, amount to charity 3%. Which is funny, because where we work about 60% of the people are actively turned off by the concept of charity and would aggressively avoid anything that mentions it, and of the remainder, everyone is sufficiently appalled at the breakdown that nobody's touched it in months. Now, someone drives out every three months (17%!) and throws away all the contents and replaces them with new contents, which is arguably worse than not having it at all.
