CharityWatch VS Catchafire

Someone just invited me to give to a charity, so I thought I'd share the reminder to you, fellow rich non-tithing-payers, haha. https://charitywatch.org appears to be very thorough, sincere, and experienced since 1992. Source: over 1 year ago

That isn't true. You need to learn how to do accurate research in terms of non-profits. You can look all of this information up on charitynavigator.org or charitywatch.org.

I recommend doing a volunteer gig at taprootplus.org or catchafire.org. Great learning experience, remote work, and they are very tolerant of mistakes and learning curves. If you do good, have them give you a recommendation on LinkedIn. Source: 11 months ago
