Subject: [IAJGS Leadership] Charity Review Websites
Dear IAJGS Leaders,

Charities bank on American's generosity and count on the fact that many give with their heart without sufficient investigation to determine that their donations are well targeted to worthwhile charities that will spend the funds wisely. This month's article, "Charity Review Websites" shares available tools to help target your charitable donations. It also shares warnings as to charity scams that become all the more prevalent at this time of year. It even shares how I used a charity research tool to facilitate my own family research. 

"Charity Review Websites" has been published in the December 2021 issue of "Venturing into Our Past", the Newsletter of the Jewish Genealogical Society of the Conejo Valley and Ventura County (JGSCV). Current and prior newsletters are freely available at the Society's website, https://www.jgscv.org/

All Practicing Safe Computing articles published to date are available in a single searchable PDF. This resource is freely accessible at https://tinyurl.com/SafeComputingArticles. Consider placing a link to it on your society's web site or otherwise sharing it with your members as an ongoing free resource, reminding them when new articles are available. If you have any questions or suggestions for future articles, please contact me.

Best,
Hal
