If you think private charity works for the disadvantaged, you are confusing the customer with the product.

Mmm, can you elaborate?

Like Red Cross or local church's soup kitchen, how does their activity not benefit the disadvantaged?

Maybe some private charities do benefit the disadvantaged. But that doesn't mean those private charities work for the disadvantaged.

Who is the customer of a private charity? Who is the product of a private charity?
