If they wanted to do someting to help Africa then help us here. This country cannot help our citizens at this time much lees any one else. The lastes report show the US is in debt so deep that we cannot come out of it in the next ten years. Also if Exxon is so generious why did they not send relief to New Orlens or the Mid west.?
Does getting a tax break for charitable giving count as a hidden agenda? If so, then I guess I have one just like Exxon.

Also, it looks like Exxon gave $7 MILLION dollars to Katrina relief back in 2005.
