This site rates charities based on spending efficiency. While there are many liberal causes rated here there are also some good groups as well.

Another excellent charity is Habitat For Humanity. I've dealt with them before and they are frugal, and I think teaching people the value of property ownership will, in the long run, make more conservatives.

I just contributed to our local JayCee's [sp?]. They do a lot for underprivlidged kids at Christmas time. No more 'big' charities for me, there are plenty who need help in your home town.
