For the mom or other caregiver in your life who has everything, consider gifting a CharityWatch account. Help them avoid charity scams and wasteful nonprofits and make an impact with their donations.

Gift a CharityWatch Account, which includes access to in-depth charity ratings on hundreds of national charities conducted by degreed accountants who “follow the cash” and help donors understand how their donations to charity are really being spent.

With a CharityWatch gift account, your recipient will receive our Charity Rating Guide & Watchdog Report, published twice per year (if selected), and online access to all of our charity rating profiles, including:

• A+ to F Ratings
• Program % and Fundraising Efficiency Metrics
• Executive Salaries & Other Compensation
• Governance & Transparency Benchmarks
• Detailed Analysts’ Notes
• List of Financial Documents Analyzed for the Rating

Did you know:

• A charity can spend 99% of your donation on overhead without breaking the law?

• Nonprofit trade associations like Candid (at guidestar.org) and Charity Navigator have assigned Platinum Seals of Transparency and 4-Star ratings to nonprofits that spend 35% or less on their programs?

• Some nonprofits pay their executives $1 million or more in annual compensation?

Will you help CharityWatch continue our important work?

As the only independent charity watchdog organization in the United States, CharityWatch relies on your support to fund our in-depth research and analysis in order to bring you the unbiased charity ratings and other information you rely on to help you make more informed giving decisions. We are not directly or indirectly funded by nonprofit industry interests.

We hope you will consider making a donation today so that we can continue to speak openly and critically and call out wrongdoing when we see it without concern for special interests cutting our funding. CharityWatch is a small organization and your donations are noticed, needed, and greatly appreciated. Thank you for giving wisely!
