Tips for Holiday Giving
Read the Reviews
Get an on-the-ground look at the nonprofit’s work through GreatNonprofits reviews. Read about people's experiences with a nonprofit as volunteers, donors, board members, or clients.
These will help you understand how the organization works and the real, human impact it has. Add your own reviews to organizations you're passionate about so that others can benefit from them!
Know Where Money Is Going
Make sure your donation goes where you intend it to go. Should you donate to a specific program or to the nonprofit’s general funds? Is there a certain fund you want to give to within the nonprofit? Call or email the organization to understand your giving options, and ask where the money is needed most.
Become an Expert
Once you've identified a nonprofit that aligns with your values and interests, check out their website. Contact them via email to see if they have any events or tours available where you can learn more about them!
