I don't know who you guys talked to, but I've known about them for a while now, and from what I've seen it looks like they do good for a lot of people. It's not just one person running it but many, many people all over the world. They want to help people in their communities and they are showing people that Goths are not just people in black, but a caring subculture. I've even talked via e-mail a number of times to the founder (we have sons around the same age) and she is a very smart and level-headed woman.
Here's the link to their MySpace page, it might help you guys understand better!!
