Agree with Pete’s approach. With few exceptions, if a charity isn’t rated well on Charity Navigator or I’m not personally involved I choose to steer clear. Experience has shown that over time people come and go in organizations like that and members can have many ideas and good intentions but if they aren’t clearly channeled by the mission statement and organizational structure the benefits can be diminished.
