Do you give regulary to any non-religious charities?
i regularly give to Doctors Without Borders but would like to know if there is a way to check on their "efficiency" with regards to donations.
Is there a reliable way to do this? I am always suspicious of pie charts that show such low 'administrative' expenses (%wise). I guess just out of curiousity, if you do have a favorite charity, why or how did you pick them? I guess I'll start. Being somewhat a refugee myself and seeing all those former "Yugoslavian" refugees settle in Germany, I can somewhat relate to their issues.

I would recommend a smaller, local non-profit.
Trust me, they will appreciate it.
