It's amazing the people who push this crap think if you aren't paying taxes to the gov't then no charitable acts wil ever take place.
The truth is that the govt is the least efficient method of distributing anything that might actually help people. But in general gov't programs increase poverty and dependence. Which is probably the idea.
The truth is that charities are the least efficient. On top of exorbitant salaries of some charity CEOs, they have high overhead and are feast or famine depending on contributions
Public charities are a nice stopgap but they are incapable of handling the volume that the government can.
No country on earth relies on public charities to handle all their public welfare
They are actually the most efficient, far more than the gov't, in part because they are there, while the gov't is in Washington.
The more bureaucrats run charities, the mroe people who need them. The more private sources run charities, the less people need them. Moral in there somewhere.

Private charities are much more inefficient than government. Most of their overhead is dedicated just to the act of raising money. Some charities spend as much as 90% just in fundraising expenses
Anyone who is a true follower of christ knows you give personally and from your own heart... not having it raped from you whether you have the calling to give it or not
And in a country based on freedom... you have the freedom to be a miserly prick too, even if ones like you don't like it and want to be generous with someone else's money

What's the overhead for govt? I'll bet it is much higher than the AVERAGE (not some horror story) for charities.

The issue is not which kind of 'charity' is most efficient, government or private. The issue is that government charity creates a class of poor who are never anything but poor, make their beds daily in their own misery, cannot see the opportunities that are out there for them in this great country, and have given up their freedom for a type of miserable security that no one would choose without having it foisted upon them.
In frequent threads here the brain-dead leftists moan about how the "idle rich" (like there is such a thing) don't deserve their money. But look at the other side. The poor in this country enjoy a lifestyle envied by even middle class people in most of the world. What have they done to deserve this? The idlest of the idle rich invest money and help other hard working people get ahead. The poor simply absorb tax payer funding and have babies.

If you wouldn't demand the taxpayer subsidize your gasoline in every post I might take you seriously."But lots of people are. And they are the problem, simply because they cause a demand on other people's resources."
And that is also fine and dandy but that gives you no right to slander those who make no such demands.

What do private charities do to wean people out of poverty?
Government welfare agencies offer educational support and jobs programs to provide a way out of poverty. Millions of Americans have taken advantage of these programs

Did you actually read any of this? The first link says private charity can't eliminate poverty because there is no accepted definition of poverty. The government can't eliminate it either for the same reason.
Second, the gov't has crowded out much private charity through its own efforts and also high tax rates. In the 19th Century we saw the largest amount of private endowments for universities, hospitals, etc etc. All of that paid for by private capital from those evil 1%ers.

Typically they offer time-limited services rather than lifetime services.
But your question is way too broad because there are hundreds of thousands of charities that all oeprate differently.
Better question: Why should the Federal gov't have primary responsibility over welfare? It is not a Constitutional responsibility. It is a demonstrated failure, with billions paid out fraudently each year. It tends to confirm people in poverty, rewarding them for being needy and punishing them for becoming independent. I think we need fewer people on the dole, not more. Ideally no one, although there are always people with literally no means of support.
