Important information
- Additional Info:To avoid charity scams, Floridians should:
Research before giving. Search the charity's name online with words such as: scam or complaint. Look up the charity's name on the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services website or research the organization using CharityWatch.org, CharityNavigator.org and Give.org;
Avoid paying with cash, gift cards or wire transfers. Payment by these methods is difficult to track and therefore, difficult to recover. Consider donating by using a credit card, which tends to be more secure and trackable;
Be sure to know and trust the professional fundraiser who offers to send a courier to pick up a check or cash donation;
Research the charity name and do not be swayed by the name of the charity alone. Often, charity names are selected to have an emotional impact on specific groups of donors. For example, many veterans' charity names often include the following words: veterans, heroes, wounded, injured and warriors. This doesn't always mean the charity will donate to the named groups or prioritize this group above others; and
Ask what percentage of donations support charitable services. Also, ask for the charity's name, web address, physical location and phone number. It is a red flag if the charity or fundraiser is unwilling to answer questions.
