November and December are the two biggest months for charities. More donations are made during the holidays than any other time of the year. With new disasters happening each year, different areas of the world are in need. These disasters cause new “organizations??? to pop up, and you don’t always know if they are legit or just fly by night scams out to get your money. Charity watchdog organizations are there to help you know that your money is going to a legit organization. One website www.charitywatch.org is a great place to look up to see if the organization is legitimate. You can research which charities make better use of your money; some organizations use more money for overhead, salaries and such. It’s nice to know that your money is going to the right places.
