Donating excess profit (from self-run business and/or employment) to local non-profits/small organizations is the single most satisfying thing I've ever done. Not only does it feel great to donate the funds to them, but to be able to afterwards tell the change you're able to help them achieve is invaluable.
- Cwizard 5y agoDo you have any advice on finding/selecting the right charities? Each year I give away a portion of my salary but always struggle to find good charities to give to. Perhaps I am overthinking it, but any tips on this would be appreciated.
- ryanmercer 5y agoFind some charities that interest you then hit up a site like https://www.charitynavigator.org/ https://www.charitynavigator.org/ and see if they are in the database, if they are see how they are rated, make sure they aren't spending 95% of what they raise on salaries and advertising expenses, etc.
- capableweb 5y ago> Do you have any advice on finding/selecting the right charities I don't donate to international/national organizations but local ones, or even local businesses I like but who struggle with something. My tip for finding those is to participate in the local business/events landscape in your province/city/neighborhood, and talk to people.
