Martha is correct about the good that the LDS church does through its charitable organizations, both locally and worldwide.
Many people have no idea that when there's a major disaster anywhere on the planet, often the LDS church is the first organization on the ground providing food, water, clothing, and shelter. By first on the ground, I mean that it is not uncommon for them to be there giving aid before the local government can get its act together.
The money isn't used to grow some huge religious empire the way many people seem to think. It's used to fund the growth of the church around the world through missionary work and the building of churches and temples for members to use, and also for huge amounts of charity work of all kinds all over the planet.
If people want to hate the LDS church, that's their right, and that's on them. But they should at least know the truth of what they're hating.
