Comment on Ask HN: Do you help beggars?parent

Even donation to charitable foundations is dubious to me. I have no idea where/what they are going to use the money, even though they promise on certain contribution. In personal opinion, instead of providing financial aids, i would say providing working opportunity is better for their future, as they will be more skillful and independent.

Many charitable organizations are rated (by % of dollar donated that makes it to the actual cause) by independent organizations.

At least for bigger outfits, it's easy to find out how your money is spent.
