There is a website that gives the stats on charities; how much of their proceeds actually go to their stated cause, average monies raised per year, CEO salary.  I don't know if you would trust a site like that to vet your potential charity of choice.  I actually stumbled upon the site, when trying to find data on the Kars for Kids charity.
