How to Check if a Charity is Legitimate in Australia | Ep. 42
In this episode, join Dr Bi Mian with Cassandra Treadwell, founder and CEO of So They Can, to unpack how doctors can check if a charity is legitimate in Australia and give with confidence. Cass leads an education charity working in Kenya and Tanzania with full DFAT accreditation, and she brings a practical, on-the-ground view of what credible impact looks like.
We cover the big distinctions between a charity, a not-for-profit, and an NGO. More importantly, we show how to treat giving like investing, focusing on accountability, outcomes, and clear reporting.
If you want to direct a portion of your tax to proven programs, avoid common donor traps, and feel certain about where your money goes, this conversation gives you a clean framework to give with purpose, impact, and confidence.
