Direct your donations through a church that will then give the donation to a specific family in need. It works well for the flood victims and makes your donation tax deductible. What is this 50% business with St.Judes?

Charity Nav recommends Southern Poverty Law Center. They lost all credibility with hat one.

St. Jude's...no kid should ever suffer. I know I can't stop it from happening, but hopefully I can at least make it a bit better.
This is our top one.

Compassion International is a good one. Really awesome experience getting to meet a child that you sponsor.

I know a family from BR whose child was treated for Leukemia at St Jude's. They went through hell and back but did not pay a dime for medical care and stayed at Ronald McDonald house while going through multiple treatments and surgeries. Their daughter came through and is cancer free for 4 years. St Jude's is a special place. My research shows $0.74 of every dollar goes to research and treatment, while the rest goes to fundraising, 15% and admin at 19%. I am good with that.

410 Bridge, and not necessarily a charity, but the local orphanage in B/CS.

If looking to help in third world countries CRS is a good one.
