Donating to charities

We also donate to our Anglican church, which inspires eye-rolls from many. But I've seen first hand how much help ours and other local churches provide for the local homeless, and how far those dollars go to making real impacts. Lots of churches do tons of work quietly, spending church funds to purchase the food and volunteer work from parishioners to prepare and distribute meals. I know it doesn't fit the smug narrative of those who like to write off all organised religion as greedy charlatans taking advantage of the simple-minded, but my first-hand experience has been the polar opposite of that. Not that that doesn't exist, but it's hardly universal...
My understanding is religions are not taxed because of the charity they provide.

My moms church ( I was involved for a few years) does a lot of local charity , there are sub groups within the church , ladies groups ect and they decide where earnings from bake sales ect. go . It’s very grass roots and they all seem to enjoy it . Zero corruption at ground zero.

My mom worked for the Salvation Army for about a decade , managed a thrift store . I like the work they do , they aren’t perfect , but they are committed and help a lot of people , locally.
