Maybe I misread but it seems Red Cross is the only organization named who are lobbying for this money. A couple organizations are mentioned who were subcontracted through Red Cross.

If we're worried about over stretching out charities, then we should ease the burden by sending them supplies to continue the care they give. These organizations are not accountable to the Federal Government, so there is literally no possible way to fiscally track how to fairly reimburse these groups for the money they put out. They are all supported by private donations, and if these groups need some relief themselves - we can donate directly.
