Going to be interesting to see if they adapt their messaging to be more explicit about who their beneficiaries are, or just stop soliciting in CA. Seems like a good chunk of their donations could come from CA, so it'd be a big loss. Maybe they'll instead spin up some CA-based beneficiaries so they can maintain their mission without having to be more explicit about who is benefiting exactly.
There are no "beneficiaries" it's a grift!

I originally learned about it through [the trueanon podcast](https://www.patreon.com/posts/episode-477-kold-135145076), their episode on it is really good.

> Kids in need aren’t even really the target of the organization’s financial efforts. Instead, those go to 17- and 18-year-olds seeking gap-year trips to Israel and their families. This is priceless.

From their most recent form 990: "Advertising and Promotion: $41,505,368; Grants (domestic + foreign): $36,693,172". More than anything it's a self-licking ice-cream cone. Ads that solicit donations for more ads.
