Ask HN: How to donate money effectively?
I'm thinking of donating some cash to a charity of some kind. How can I make sure my money will actually make a difference and be utilized properly?
- phreanix 16y agoYou may want to look into charities and orgs that are active in the gulf cleanup efforts right now.
- subsection1h 16y agoIf you want to allocate money to charity now and you're currently unsure how best to do so, maybe you should consider using a donor-advised fund [1]. I prefer Vanguard [2].
