Kids Can Relate to This Charity

Even though Heiffer gets only 3 stars, I think it's a good charity if you want to teach children about charity. If you donate in honor of a child (or anyone), Heiffer will send a very nice foldout card that you can send to the child that shows kids with the animals and explains about the charity.

admin costs

I am very concerned about the HUGE % that end up as administrative costs with this organization. I received a slick pamphlet from them. i just don't feel I can split my dollar in half between the needy and the pockets of the staff.
