Is all charitable giving equal? <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The simple answer is \u201cno.\u201d One of the main reasons that giving isn\u2019t simple or equal is that all charities lump giving into a single pot. As a donor, you may think that a donation is a donation but that isn\u2019t the case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Every donation has its own unique characteristics, qualities, objectives, and motivations. Without the ability to illustrate the benefits of a donation, the impact that donation will have for that organization (as well as its programs and missions) will usually result in a small or negligible donation \u2014 or worse a non-donation. On the contrary, when donors can see that large donations help to solve signicant problems, then they are more inclined to donate larger sums.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That said, this isn\u2019t a \u201cone-size-fits-all.\u201d Instead, charities face another large obstacle. Most charities want their donors to offer a large donation. Yet, the larger donation that these individuals can give is often in the form of a bequest from their estate. To do this, however, they must wait for the person to pass away, to think of their charitable organization specifically, and to leave you something in your estate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ultimately, this leaves a lot up to chance. After all, charitable giving has been on the decline for the past ten years, which means you\u2019re never guaranteed any donation at all (let alone a large donation!). It\u2019s a sad fact that 96 percent of people who die don\u2019t leave anything for charity at all, and this can leave charitable organizations in a tough spot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
