Is Your Donation a Gamble?
The Reality: In the real world, there is no “Donate” button that instantly tells you if your donation was effective. When you give to a charity based solely on a nice-sounding name, you are playing roulette with your money—and with the lives of those you intend to help.
The Multiplier Effect: Not all charities are created equal. Research shows that the strongest organizations are vastly more effective than average ones.
To illustrate that in Charity Roulette, Strong Charities turn $1 into $3 of value.
Lousy Charities burn through donated money, turning $1 donated into 25 cents of help.
Fake “Charities” take your money and do nothing.
The Goal: You can’t tell a life-saving hero organization from a cash-burning machine just by looking at a name. You have to dig deeper.
And once you’ve found a Strong Charity, focus your giving there to create consistent positive results.
Stop Guessing: Don’t let your giving be a game of chance.

Avoid wasting hundreds or thousands of dollars for the price of a sandwich
You could easily waste $50, $100, $1,000, or even more giving to a charity that wastes money and lacks focus. And making it worse, maybe the charity that doesn’t do the work you care about most.
For just $7.99 or $9.99 (the cost of the book) you can learn how to make sure that your future donations, every one of them, go to strong charities doing work you truly care about. A tiny investment for a lifetime of confident giving.
