12. I hate groups that ask for donation only to charge exorbitant "administration" fees

Per Charity Navigator Doctors with out borders uses 90% of the donated money to the work they do, 10% for admin fees. Some of the best numbers in the business.
World Central Kitchen uses 100% of the money donated to feed people.
Jose' Andres pays the admin fees himself. Can't beat that.. Your money will get to where it's needed, not to line someones pockets..
Feed'em and Fix'em..
