As an ADVOCATE: Support the cause…
OUR MISSION IS TO MAKE IMPACTFUL GIVING EASIER FOR ALL:
Since 2001, we’ve empowered millions of donors by providing free access to data, tools and resources to guide philanthropic decision-making.
With more than 245,000 charities rated, our comprehensive ratings shine a light on the cost-effectiveness and overall health of a charity’s programs, including measures of stability, efficiency and sustainability. The metrics inform donors of not just where their dollars are going but what their dollars are doing.’
Like the organizations we rate, we’re a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, too. We don’t charge the charities we evaluate, ensuring our ratings remain objective. In turn, we depend on the generosity of individuals, foundations and corporations to fund our programs.

MAKE IMPACTFUL GIVING EASIER FOR ALL:
Every year, millions of Americans rely on Charity Navigator‘s ratings and resources to guide their giving. Like the nonprofits we rate, we’re a nonprofit too. Your tax-deductible donation to Charity Navigator will increase the depth and breadth of our cost-free tools and information, ensuring your giving is as informed and impactful as possible.
When you donate to Charity Navigator, you‘re investing in a meaningful cause that has the power to bring about positive transformation in our world. Your contribution can make a real impact by providing aid to those who require it.
- Donations at specified amounts are designated or you may customize your gifts. Recurring gifts (especially monthly) are greatly appreciated. Memorial and Tribute gifts are welcomed.
- Donor-Advised Fund (DAF): Making a contribution from your Donor-Advised Fund (DAF) just got a whole lot easier. FreeWill uses DAFpay, created by Chariot, to connect with major donor-advised fund sponsors, saving you time while streamlining the grant request process.
- Donating stock and securities: When you donate securities, you make an outsized impact without taking money directly out of your bank account. Plus, neither you nor Charity Navigator will be taxed on the gains for appreciated assets you donate.
- Give from your Individual Retirement Account (IRA) through a Qualified Charitable Distribution: A Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) is a tax-efficient way for those 70 ½ or older to donate from their IRA, while also counting towards your annual Required Minimum Distribution. For those who are at least 73 years old, QCDs count toward the IRA owner’s required minimum distribution (RMD) for the year. The IRS allows up to $111,000 in QCD donations from an IRA. Any amount above this limit will not qualify as a tax-free QCD.
- Cryptocurrency: When you donate cryptocurrency, you make an outsized impact without ever selling the crypto yourself. That means neither you nor Charity Navigator will be taxed on the gains for appreciated assets you donate.
