Don’t Give Your Money to the Left!
- A Guide to Charitable Giving for the Political Right (a work-in-progress)
April 2021
PERMALINK
The Left’s long march through the institutions took it through the philanthropic sector. Sadly, most charitable institutions lean left. That said, there are still places where people on the political Right can feel good about placing their charitable dollars.
Potomac Tea Party endeavors to identify the best of these on the national level. We started with poverty alleviation, animals & wildlife, and disaster relief.
We filtered for:
1. No government funding above 5% of total budget
2. No obvious leftist leanings from a scan of the organization’s website
3. Must earn at least a three star rating (four is highest) from Charity Navigator for financial health and transparency
Our results are set forth below.
Disaster Relief
Name Gov’t Funding Level Rating - Charity Navigator Description
Disaster Relief None 3 Stars - Good supplies at the ready
Effort
Poverty Alleviation
Name Gov’t Funding Level Rating - Charity Navigator Description
Charity Cars None 4 Stars - Excellent free vehicles to struggling families
LIFT None 3 Stars - Good helps parents set financial goals
Modest Needs None 3 Stars - Good short-term financial assistance
Animals & Wildlife
Name Gov’t Funding Level Rating - Charity Navigator Description
Guide Dogs for None 4 Stars - Excellent guide dog school
the Blind
Guiding Eyes None 3 Stars - Good guide dog school
for the Blind
Animal Rescue None 4 Stars - Excellent rescues shelter animals
Foundation
Primarily Primates None 3 Stars - Good primate sanctuary in Texas
Whitetails Unlimited None 3 Stars - Good deer habitat and hunting
Sportsmen’s Alliance None 3 Stars - Good defends hunting & fishing
Delta Waterfowl < 5% 3 Stars - Good duck habitat and hunting
Boone and Crockett None 3 Stars - Good big game hunting & conservation
Club
NOTE: Although we are listing national organizations, we recommend starting at the state and local levels. During Hurricane Katrina, lots of conservative websites strongly urged donations to local groups rather than the national ones. Many provided links to such organizations. Local groups are less “corporate” (more nimble) and have a better understanding of real needs. Yes, most organizations found at the state and local level are on the Left. (Remember, the Left owns the charitable sector.) But most of the right-leaning ones are to be found there. Virtually all national groups are on the Left and virtually all those on the Right are at the local/regional levels.
