Looking for the Perfect Charity?


There are a lot of charities out there. Between similar names, vague mission statements and the sheer number of them, how can you pick the one right for you?

CharityNavigator.org saves potential donors from the tedious research associated with finding a responsible, efficient charity, or worse — donating to one where a hefty percentage of your money goes straight to a CEO's salary.

Charity Navigator works with a team of professional analysts who have scoured over tens of thousands of non-profits' financial documents. After each charity's evaluation (there are over 5,000 on the site), it's given an unbiased, numbers-based rating, so you can make sure your donation won't go to waste.

And they must be doing something right. In 2007, over 4 million donors visited CharityNavigator.org to check out opinion pieces by the site's experts, donation tips, top 10 (and bottom 10) lists and, of course, find their perfect charitable match.
