Teleios Research analyzed the financial and work efficiency of secular versus Christian private related relief organizations operating in the United States. The Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability's online database was used for the Christian-based organizations and Charity Navigator for the secular-based organizations. The Christian list was analyzed first and matched to similar organizations on the secular list that were active in at least three states.

Types of organizations included in this evaluation were family and child, medical, education, urban development, poverty alleviation, and legal services. Types of organizations from the secular-based list unable to be matched to a Christian agency were those that advocated abortion or LGBTQ+ rights.

This study showed both secular and Christian-based organizations provide substantial amounts of services to help certain groups within the United States. Christian-based organizations appear to work more efficiently with a lower overhead and a greater percent given to relief.

Is there a reason you don’t post the entire article?

Decades ago, a secular university did a study on church charities compared to secular. They found church charities did more to help the poor than all other charities combined.

Where are those caring, humanist charities? Hmmm
