Lamar Odom & Khloe Kardashian Not Using Cancer Funds For Cancer Reasearch

Eight years ago, Lamar Odom started the charity Cathy's Kids which was set up to raise money for cancer research. Both Lamar and Khloe Kardashian advertise for the fund on their respective websites and have had fundraisers for the charity and have used it as their charity of choice when mentioning the good things they do for people. ESPN has discovered that in the eight years of its existence, exactly $0 has gone to any cancer entity. So, the question is where is all the money? Did it go to Lamar's fashion line? Maybe Khloe has it. The records show that of the $2.2M raised, 60% went to finance two basketball teams for kids who travel around the country playing. Another $70K a year or so goes to Lamar's best friend as a salary although it is not clear exactly what he does. Money is still being raised on both Lamar and Khloe's websites. When asked about it, Lamar got upset and refused to answer questions. (Thanks Dave)
