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

Money made simple

$97.12spent for every $100 of revenueRevenue covered expenses this year.
$18.22in assets for every $1 spent this yearSome assets cannot be spent right away.
0.2%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.

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.
