My Nonprofit Reviews

There are so many charities and NGO’s all around the world and it is impossible to know which ones are legitimate and, more importantly, which well-known names and major charities are not spending most of your donations on administration, salaries and expenses other than the target country/people. More importantly, few appreciate that many major well-known charities and NGO’s partner with autocratic governments and donations are diverted at the highest levels and never filter down or reach target groups.

It is to their credit and a huge advantage that APOPO send out detailed annual statements to donors, keep donors informed on a regular basis and donors can see exactly where their money is going and that it is being used wisely for legitimate breeding, training and nurturing of rats and dogs. There are, in fact, few charities that are as transparent as APOPO. They are well run, spend wisely and engage so thoroughly and professionally with their donors.
