Before you give

Should I give to this charity?

Easy charity check
Stop and check first

This record may have an IRS status problem. Do not give until you verify it.

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.

Basic facts we verified

Money made simple

20.84%of revenue went to mission work17.6% of expenses · Program services
$118.74spent for every $100 of revenueSpending was higher than revenue this year.
$1.62in assets for every $1 spent this yearSome assets cannot be spent right away.

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 $9,246 this year. Ask whether that was planned or caused by a one-time event.

Bottom line: Do not decide from a name, mission statement, or tax status alone. Look at where the money went, then ask what changed, who was helped, and what your gift will do. YouCanGiveBack does not endorse or grade organizations.

Tax year 2016

A plain-language look at the latest Form 990 figures available. These numbers help you ask better questions; they do not, by themselves, rate whether a charity is good or bad.

How each $100 of revenue was used

The large number compares each expense with revenue. The smaller number shows its share of total expenses.

FundraisingAsking for donations0.00% of revenue0.0% of expenses
Total expenses$58,592118.74% of revenue

Expenses were greater than revenue, so the colored ring fills the available $100 and the total above 100% is shown below.

Pause before giving. This filing reports that 0.0% of spending went to fundraising and 17.6% went to mission work. Ask the charity to explain these numbers and show recent results.
