State Warns on Charitable Groups Under Solicitation Act
South Carolina regulates charities through its Division of Public Charities and issues annual Scrooges and Angels lists. The 21 year practice highlights how funds are spent, with Angels directing 80 percent or more to program services, while Scrooges allocate 45 percent or less.
