Check a charity before you give

Look up any registered charity in England and Wales or any 501(c)(3) organisation in the United States. Every page shows the official registration status, five years of income and spending, how the charity compares with others of its size and cause, and anything the regulator has flagged, such as overdue accounts. Figures come straight from the public registers and are refreshed from each new extract.
