Easy charity check

We do not have enough spending detail

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.

Plain answer: A tax form cannot prove that a charity is doing good. It can show how the charity says it spent its money—and point out questions you should ask.
