Charity Check gave us the tools to learn that one particular family was using aliases and providing false address information for as many as 6 different family members all claiming to reside in different households when, if fact, they all resided at one address and were fraudulently obtaining funds by these means.

Families in Extreme Poverty Up, Study Says
from USA Today
The number of families living on $2 per person per day for at least a month in the USA has more than doubled in 15 years to 1.46 million.
That's up from 636,000 households in 1996, says a new study released by researchers at the University of Michigan and Harvard University.
Government benefits blunt the impact of such extreme poverty, but not completely, says one of the researchers, Luke Shaefer, a professor of social work at Michigan.
When food stamps are included as income, the number of households in extreme poverty, defined as living on $2 a day, drops to 800,000, Shaefer says. That's up from 475,000 in 1996.
