  • Make a list of causes that you feel particularly passionate about and would be interested in contributing to. These can be very broad topics, such as ‘child hunger’ or ‘environmental issues’. Writing these things down will help you develop a starting point for your search.
  • Look for charities that fit into these topics, and really read their mission statements and information about their work to narrow down a few options that you are interested in. Look in particular for charities that are based near you, as this will give you the option to go work with them in person, instead of just giving money.
  • If you can, find exact statistics detailing what the charity does with their donations. Make sure that most of it goes towards actual charity work, instead of just paying salaries or operational costs. Obviously, some of the money will go towards these things, but the majority should go towards the cause that brought you there.
