Apart from those who are indifferent to the needs of others, there are several reasons people resist giving money to charities.

In some cases, they realise that some charities give little or none of the money to those actually in need, keeping much of the donated money for stipends, administrative expenses and commissions. In some cases, it is even unclear whether the charity even has a charitable purpose, or is simply a collection for the maintenance of a religious organisation. Even when money does reach those in need it can be misapplied, so that there is little in the way of long term improvement - people are more likely to give if they know that their donations really will help someone.

These are problems that charities have to address if they wish to encourage the generosity of those to whom they appeal for funds.

Myself personally, because so little actually goes to the ones who need it. An organisation can claim its a charity, if only even a tiny percentage goes to the needy. I prefer to give to the few charities which do give 100 per cent.

Well there are lots of reasons. Some of those reasons are that a certain charity is close to their heart or maybe because they are just a good person and they want to donate to charity.

Because the money donated may help someone else or something greater than what they would have done with the money. People are willing to do their part in making the world a better place.

Reasons on why you should not donate to charity?

I am so glad that you asked this question. First of all you should donate to charity because they really need your help, some people are homeless or have no food, shelter, or clothes and food supplies. And you can majorly help them out. If you were homeless or had to live at a shelter or charity wouldn't you want people to donate to you? You would have clothes, food, hats, warmth, and maybe even a home. You see it's not why should you donate it's deciding what to donate. I would really consider you to help and give them supplies they need, or donate money to them. I hope that my answer helps and i hope that you help charity!
