Basic public information is available, but it is not enough to judge how well donations are used. Ask the charity for a current spending breakdown and results.

Money made simple

- Who did you help? Ask for a recent story or report that shows real results.
- What will my money do? Ask exactly what your gift will pay for.
- Is this really the charity? Give only through its official website or confirmed phone number.
