How many times have you read online reviews this week?
These days, it’s become second nature to read online reviews. A business’ online reputation is everything. The same should be true for nonprofits. You read reviews before you spend money at a new restaurant, or on electronics, why not read reviews before you give to charity?
The best way to learn about a nonprofit’s impact is to read about it firsthand from donors, clients and volunteers. The homeless mom who was given shelter, the 3rd grade class that got to clean up a beach, the donor who saw their money directly at work; these are the testimonials that are so important when making the decision to give.
And if you have given time or other resources to a nonprofit, make sure you write a review of your own experience.
Have online reviews influenced your decision to donate? What do you look for in reviews before you decide to give? What does not weigh into your donation decisions?

Donors to charities are often advised to give to an organization only if the money goes directly to program expenses, rather than to administrative ones. We want to feel like our money is directly cleaning up a waterway, tutoring kids after school or feeding the homeless, not going toward admin costs.
But do the most effective groups actually spend less on administrative costs? A new study points to just the opposite. The analysis uses data compiled by GiveWell. The group ranked nonprofits using criteria such as impact and cost-effective activities. The nonprofits that the group would recommend ended up spending more on administrative costs on average than those that the group would not recommend.
