Answer 4

My non profit organization. The program provides a safe recreation place for children 6-12 years old. These children come from low income families and don't even have a park within walking distance. My organization is the only source of recreation for these children. The children also get help with homework because I noticed a lot of them were failing simply because they were not doing their homework. After doing some research I found that most of the children were not doing their homework because no one at home was able to help them. I am hoping that this program will be a preventative measure to end this cycle in this neighborhood. I also take the children on field trips to get them out of their neighborhood. Most of those kids would never see a movie theater, ice skating rink, aquarium, etc. if it were not for this program. Donations from generous people help to keep this program running.

Answer 8

Check out Charity Navigator (link below) - it's a group that looks at the IRS form 990 for most major nonprofit organizations and analyzes a number of key factors that relate to the impact of donations, such as:

*  % of money spent on overhead (administration, fundraising) versus spent on the charity goal (research or helping a specific group)

* salaries of key employee(s)

* relationships to other organizations

* previous fundraising results

* etc.

they also rate individual charites, both as a composite and as on individual criteria.  You can also browse their lists, which might help you find an organization you might otherwise have overlooked.
