Finding a charity to support can be more difficult than you would think. There are hundreds to choose from and filtering through them all to find one that supports a cause you truly care about can take days. The most effective charities are names the majority of people will recognize. However, there are some lesser-known charities that are actually more successful than the most popular charities. These five charities all function on less than $2 million per year but still manage to earn a four-star rating from Charity Navigator.

1. Air Warrior Courage Foundation: This charity was created by military aviators to “care for our own.” It works along with the Red River Valley Fighter Pilots Association to focus on active duty, guard, reserve, and retired military personal and their families who need financial assistance.


2. Greenville Humane Society: The Greenville Humane Society was created in 1937 as an organization that helped with the prevention of cruelty to animals. The mission of the charity is to “promote and improve the quality of life and humane treatment of animals.” The methods used to accomplish this mission are reducing the unwanted animal population by placing them in homes or spaying and neutering the animals.


3. Child Aid: The mission of this charity is to “create opportunity for Latin America’s rural and indigenous poor through childhood literacy and education programs.” The charity holds reading programs and training for teachers and librarians.


4. National Alopecia Areata Foundation: NAAF advocates for research to find a cure or treatment for alopecia areata. It also supports those who are impacted by the disease while educating the public about alopecia areata.


5. Living Lands and Waters: This charity was founded in 1998 as an organization to “aid in the protection, preservation, and restoration of the natural environment of the nation’s major rivers and their waterbeds. The charity expands awareness of the issues pertaining to this topic and works to create a desire to help.
