Charity Registry
A Charity Registry is a database that lists organizations recognized as charitable by the government. It helps individuals and businesses find legitimate charities to support, ensuring that donations go to reputable causes. The registry often includes information about each charity's mission, financial health, and activities.
Many countries maintain their own Charity Registries, which can be accessed online. This transparency allows donors to make informed decisions and promotes accountability among charities. By checking the registry, donors can verify that a charity is compliant with regulations and is using funds effectively to fulfill its mission.
