Jealous people on the leaderboards.

Amazing. Extremely transparent about financials, which take 6 months to a year to generate (just like most nonprofits and companies, actually!). I literally have referenced, and they are on the leaderboards of one of the charities they donate to. Check teamseas.org and they have a (HUGE) donation under Tab for TeamSeas. They raise a lot of money and they have been proven to donate it. Incredible!
