7 Signs the Charity isn't Legit.

By: David Mantek

1. Only accepting cash donations or wire

transfers.

2. Can’t breakdown how donations will be used.

Donate Now

3. Can’t verify their nonprofit status.

It is important to note that legitimate nonprofit organizations, in order to maintain their status, have to

make public a wealth of information regarding their operations, assets, employee salaries, and security. This

information is easily accessible through organizations that track charities.

4.The name sounds like the name of an already

established org.

5. Puts pressure on donating immediately.

Donate Now

6. Requests donations over the phone.

7. Little to no proven track record.
