I usually divide it up among - people I know who qualify, people in my local community, some charitable organizations working on causes close to my heart
As for how I pay it:
1. For people I know it goes directly to their bank account
2. For people in my community - I just give zakat to my local mosque and they distribute
3. For charitable orgs - usually they have an online option for zakat

I split into 3 - Sudan/Palestine, economically disadvantaged people from my heritage country, and local (here in my city). I was able to further split my local contributions to new refugee families, paying for an umrah trip for Muslims with disabilities, supporting American Muslims Political Advocacy orgs (e.g., Muslim Advocates, CAIR), and my local masjid. I recommend LaunchGood as a platform!
I’m going to donate to Palestine
Palestinian Children’s Relief Fund
Same. And then employer matches up to $2k.
Hidaya Foundation - can pay by Online Check or Credit Card
Also be sure to take advantage of any corporate matching!
I’m gonna donate to Palestine but how do we know aid is getting through to the people in need?
The real answer is we don’t. we can only do our research to the best of our abilities to find out which orgs are actually working on the ground
Split across local, national and international. For Palestine recommend UNRWA
