As online charitable giving continues to grow in popularity, NC Secretary of State Elaine F. Marshall today released a new guide to help North Carolinians be informed when making donations online this holiday season.

To make sure your donations go to the purpose you want and not to line some scammer’s pocket, take these precautions.
