The "5.12Earthquake" in2008and "YuShu Debris Flow" in2009etc. have met the Chinese citizen’s enthusiasm of charity and the charitable consciousness has deeply rooted in their mind since then.Chinese public welfare and charitable organizations play a major role in Chinese philanthropy’s development. China’s charity is dominated by public charity, the local charity play an important role at the same time.

In other words, Chinese public welfare and charitable organizations have a unique role in the humanitarian area that cannot be controlled by the government and the market.With the booming development of Chinese charity is not only bright and praise but also dark and criticism, such as the "Guo Meimei" event that China Red Cross involved in seems to be the most serious one. The reputation of China Red Cross accumulate in the past hundred years was trampled worthless in this event, and its credibility fallen into the lowest. Review the scandals of Chinese charities, it can be found that the lack of internal control in these organizations made the predicament. Problems such as power, abuse, lack of supervision, confused information, the lack of risk consciousness ect. lead these organizations out of control, the corruption and fraud was appeared, and it cause the criticism from the citizens as well.For a long time, as the special government system, most of charities in our country belongs to the government system, after reform and open-up the philanthropy is allowed the non-governmental organizations or individuals to join in.

Therefore, this study is based on the lack of internal control of public welfare and charitable organizations and the implement of "administrative institutions internal control standard (on trial)" and study the internal control evaluation of Chinese public welfare and charitable organizations.PURPOSEThe purpose of this study is set up the internal control evaluation system of Chinese public welfare and charitable organizations which is base on the study to the current situation of internal control of Chinese public welfare and charitable organizations and relevant laws or regulations.l.This study summarize the document literature about internal control from home and abroad, especially concern on the research about public welfare and charitable organizations’internal control, and intend to construct the internal control evaluation system from the research of the predecessors.2. The study on Chinese public welfare and charitable organizations mostly come to a qualitative conclusion, this study use the analytic hierarchy process(AHP) and fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method to set up the weight and give out the score of each evaluation index, trying to get the qualitative conclusion of the internal control evaluation of the Chinese public welfare and charitable organizations.3. This study use the case method to practice the public welfare and charitable organizations’internal control evaluation system, and use this system to evaluate the internal control of Sichuan Red Cross, in order to get the commonness of the philanthropy from this single charity’s practice and test the capacity of this evaluation system.MAIN CONTENTS AND VIEWS This paper study the internal control evaluation of Chinese public welfare and charitable organizations under the background that the Chinese charities fallen into the scandals.
