Search Results: giving up holidays

The USA is far and away the most generous country when it comes to giving donations.
It's holiday season and many hands are out, for multiple reasons.
PBS is offering Holiday CDs, the Salvation Army is ever present with their red buckets, kids are going door to door offering Christmas wrapping paper and wreaths. the Marine Corps has their Toys for Tots, and the various religious groups and churches are ramping up their final fund raising drive of the year.
Charities can be ranked by calculating how much of your donation is actually put directly to the cause, and not sucked up by administrative expenses.
Many will be surprised at how little of their donation actually reaches a recipient in some cases.
Some are outright scams.
I will release a survey identifying the top organizations that return the highest amount to the intended recipient sometime later so as not to contaminate this poll.
Given the limits to GAG's poller I can only list a few of the hundreds of organizations.
