Because I have limited resources, I prefer to support ADRA because of the work it does overseas. Not only is it likely going to people who need it the most, but the dollars likely stretch further because the cost of living is lower.

Your charitable donation goes a long way in the developing world, where services and goods are typically much more cost effective than they are in the developed world. The median cost of just one emergency room visit for common causes in the United States is $1,223 (Caldwell et al 2013). In the developing world, however, $100 can cover the costs of high-quality healthcare to three patients at a hospital in rural Nepal. Likewise, that same $100 given to an effective charity can deworm 992 children or protect 500 people from iodine deficiency for the rest of their lives. The bottom line: your money goes further overseas.

I'm thankful that ADRA is an organization with good ratings that I can trust.

Walking around the mountains of Laos, I came upon a very nice school which was built by ADRA. I also noticed water faucets  in places where people previously must have had to haul water. Nicely done, ADRA!
