What is your view on charities? What determines whether you donate?

Question

I donated to a charity the other day and wss very disappointed to find out it had taken in about 6 million in donations last year. And only paid out about 70 thousand. To say it had high adminastration fees is an understatement. It didn't even have a rating with the BBB.
When this happens to you does it make you less likely to donate again?

I think they are great and the source of a lot of good. The deciding factor would be what kind of impact with this have and what kind of impact has it had in the past? Is this effect something I want to partner with the most? 🤔

I usually won't donate to charities that I think are less important.
Like when they ask if I want to donate to help underprivileged kids play hockey.
I'm like " I can't even afford to play hockey and aren't there diseases that still need to be cured?"

Being there when charity work gets done. I find being involved in the funraiser or charity work allows you to see where your donation goes.
