Charity

Postby Nuggets225 » 01 Apr 2016, 00:04

Hi everyoney
I recently got 3rd place in a tournament and now I have to choose a charity to which some money is sent. Any Idea about a good charity that really actually helps and you trust? Would apreciate some good ideas, Thanks!

Not really because I think most charities at some point are exposed for spending upwards of 75% of donations on themselves for events and etc. The best thing you can do is directly donate to specific research institutes rather giving someone money and allowing them to choose it for you. It takes a little more effort but will likely do better for ya.

E.G.: I always donate specifically not just to my former university that I attended, but to specific research projects led by professors I know and trust are doing the right thing.
