There are some large-scale charities which I think do use the money well. For example, I felt no hesitation in donating to Médecins Sans Frontières (Doctors Without Borders) at the beginning of the Ebola outbreak, when they were the only ones with boots on the ground actually helping people.

IIRC it was 10% then and it's under 20% now [1], but it's still a very good figure and they're open about it: > More than 80 per cent of the money you donate goes directly to our humanitarian activities.
