Check Out Charities Before Donating

Since it's the beginning of a new year, I wanted to tell everyone to be smart when you donate to a charity.

Some charities spend so much on marketing and fund raising that there's little left for the people who need it.

Some charities also pay big salaries and benefits to executives so there's little left for the recipients of the charity.

It's easy to check out a charity online and see which ones funnel the most money to the charity itself. 

Simply go to Charity Watch. You can see an alphabetical list of charities. They're rated as to those who do the most for the people their charities help. You may be shocked that the charities you hear from most often are some that spend far more on everything but the people they're supposed to help. 

Takeaway Truth

Before making a donation, always check out the organization on Charity Watch.  to find  rather than paying huge salaries and benefits to some CEO.
