Charity Navigator, the nation’s largest and most-utilized evaluator of charities, has awarded Sportsmen’s Alliance Foundation the highest rating possible for financial health, accountability and transparency. The four-star rating is a testament to the efficiency at which Sportsmen’s Alliance Foundation operates, maximizing the impact of member, business partner and donor dollars.
“We are proud to announce that your organization has earned a 4-star rating,” penned Charity Navigator President and CEO Michael Thatcher, in a letter to the Sportsmen’s Alliance Foundation. “This is our highest possible rating and indicates that your organization adheres to sector best practices and executes its mission in a financially efficient way.”
Charity Navigator evaluates ten times more charities than their nearest competitor and attracts more potential donors to their website than all other charity rating groups combined. Data proves that users who visit Charity Navigator’s website end up donating more than they planned to before viewing charity-specific information. Charity Navigator influenced approximately $10 billion in charitable gifts in 2015 alone.
“Donors today are more and more looking to rating agencies as they research where they send their charitable contributions,” said Evan Heusinkveld, president and CEO of the Sportsmen’s Alliance Foundation. “This four-star rating from the country’s top evaluator should instill confidence that not only does the Sportsmen’s Alliance Foundation accomplish its mission, it does so while upholding the highest standards of fiscal responsibility.”
Charity Navigator evaluates more than 8,000 of America’s charities each year, providing potential donors with the data they need when making a charitable donation to a worthy cause.
