I donate to local charities because I can see the results and I can trust the administration to give the majority of the funds to the people/purpose who need it.
Usually it's run by volunteers or a religious organization (provided their mandate is to provide help regardless of the receivers religion).
Are there any charity organizations with totally transparent accounting? I don't need nor expect charity organizations to be run by volunteers, and I'd prefer them to pay their administrators/employees a reasonable wage. But I have no idea which organizations user their donations efficiently.
- moonka 9y agoCheck out Charity Navigator. They are a good resource to get a little more transparency. They tend to toss up pages for large events like this as well: https://www.charitynavigator.org/index.cfm?bay=content.view&cpid=5239 https://www.charitynavigator.org/index.cfm?bay=content.view&... I ended up donating to All Hands after getting some requests from people I know close to the area, but it was nice to take a look at them on Charity Nav and see them with high marks: https://www.charitynavigator.org/index.cfm?bay=search.summary&orgid=13109&fromlistid=269 https://www.charitynavigator.org/index.cfm?bay=search.summar...
