Before you give

Are they doing good?

Easy charity check
Good signs so far

The public paperwork has several good signs. Now check whether the charity can show who it helped.

Here is the honest answer: A tax form shows money and paperwork. It cannot prove that people, animals, or the community were truly helped.

Good signs we looked for

IRS warning checkNo IRS revocation warning appears in this data.

Money made simple

$101.46spent for every $100 of revenueSpending was higher than revenue this year.
$9.20of every $100 spent went to management and office costsThis number alone does not tell us how much good they did.
$0.82in assets for every $1 spent this yearSome assets cannot be spent right away.
96.6%of its money came from giftsOther money may come from services or investments.

Ask these three easy questions

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

Worth asking: Expenses exceeded revenue by $62,707 this year. Ask whether that was planned or caused by a one-time event.

Pay context: The highest compensation shown in this filing is $433,855 for DAVID GINN (PRESIDENT AND CEO). Compare pay with organizations of similar size and complexity.

Bottom line: Good paperwork is a good sign—not proof. The best answer comes when the charity can show what it changed, who it helped, and what your gift will do. YouCanGiveBack does not endorse or grade organizations.
