MADISON, WI (WTAQ-WRN) – If you’re looking for a good charity for your end-of-the-year donations, make sure you’re doing your homework.
If you’re setting up your end-of-the-year donations, make sure you’re working with a reliable charity. State consumer protection director Michael Domke says it’s important to work with charities you trust and find out more about them.
We want to make sure that they understand who is calling them and what their purpose is, we want them to ask a couple of questions to find out where that money goes.
Domke says you should be working directly with charities if possible. Don’t just offer up money to random go fund me links or other groups in your social media feeds, and make sure you’re giving directly to that charity and not a scam page.
