"You want to help Ukrainians in need. Should you donate to UNICEF, UNHCR, Red
Cross, World Vision, Caritas, Save the Children or some other charitable
organisation?
There are so many charities, and charitable causes, to choose from.
Australia, for example, has more than 57,500 registered charities (for a
population of 25 million). The UK (population 67 million) has more more than
200,000. The US (population 350 million) has close to 1.5 million.
They’re vying against direct competitors as well as every other charity and
cause. Suicide prevention is up against wilderness conservation. Cancer
research against climate change activism. Refugee aid against the arts.
Not all actively fundraise – in Australia only about 40% do – but that still
leaves thousands competing for your money.
And that competition is hurting them."
