Researching a Charity

BBB Wise Giving Alliance
In addition to reports on nationally soliciting charities produced by the BBB Wise Giving Alliance, 57 of the 112 BBBs produce reports on charities that only solicit regionally.
Charity Navigator
Wise donors don't drop money into canisters at the checkout counter or hand over cash to solicitors outside the supermarket. Situations like these are irresistible to scam artists who wish to take advantage of your goodwill. Smart givers only support groups granted tax-exempt status under section 501(c) (3) of the Internal Revenue Code. All of the charities evaluated by Charity Navigator meet this basic requirement.
