…Savvy donors know that the

most efficient charities spend at

least 75% of their budget on their

programs and services and less

than 25% on fundraising and

administrative fees. They

understand that a charity’s ability

to sustain its programs over time is

just as important as its short-term

day-to-day spending practices.
