This is the time of year when people choose to share their blessings. That said, this economy has left dollars in short supply, so when I do give, I want to get the biggest bang for the buck that I can.
I found a website that can help. Charity Navigator gives great summaries of thousands of popular charities as to dollars collected, percent spent on administrative and fund raising costs, even the salaries of the CEOs. And they have a star rating system. Four stars is tops!
What I learned there has changed my mind about some organizations I've supported and reinforced some of my other choices.
