Thousands of compassionate families fill Food Paks with nutritional food, which are delivered directly into the homes of families they have never met. Trained ministry partners pick up food from our warehouse and operate distribution centers, feeding nearly 30,000 people every week! Faithful volunteers package and prepare food, or wrap the thousands of toys given to children during the holiday season. Generous donors with a heart to feed and clothe the hungry write monthly checks, enabling our efforts to continue around the clock. Caring corporations give truckloads of quality products to those who could, otherwise, never afford them. In countries around the world, CHF builds strong relationships with indigenous leaders who have a passion for their own people, and provide food and other aid to support their ministries.

Since 1991, Children's Hunger Fund has distributed more than $500 million in aid, bringing hope to children in more than 70 countries worldwide.

Answer 1

Children's Hunger Fund

Answer 2

Even if they wanted to they can't. They have to use some of that money to pay for the transport of food for the people they are helping. For medicine, for the advertisement of the organisation in order to raise more funds, for the paperwork, electricity, telephones, etc needed in order to run the organisation.

If there was a charity that used 100% for the charitable services, it would not exist for very long as it would not have any money left to run itself, and would have to cease to exist.

Unfortunately this is how it has to be. On the bright side, a lot of charity organisations try to use as little of everything so that they can donate as much of the dollar to the people in need. I used to work for PLAN, where we donated 90% of the dollar to the person in need, as opposed to the more famous organisation WORLD VISION which only donates between 60%-70% of the dollar to the needy - using the rest to pay for it's employees, advertisement, etc.

Answer 3

How can a charity pay for its administrative costs without PAYING for its administrative costs?

Maybe something small I suppose where everything is done on a volunteer basis. Try local charities. Acting locally is usually the best idea anyhow, depending upon the problem. But I know there are people near you who need help, we all do. If you are talking about giving money. Slip someone an anonymous envelope with cash! what's nicer than that?

Answer 4

Lions club is one , all monies donated have to be used for charity , all other funds must come from member dues and donations within the membership for the purpose of administration needs

Answer 5

it would have to be an unincorporated charity, or a personal charity.

think mother theresa, not goodwill.

this is because it costs money to incorporate, and without government funding it would have to use -some- money for administrative costs and advertising.

probably the ideal would be 50% given to recipients.

have a nice day.
