SUMMARY:Spirit of Giving Earns a “Give with Confidence” 94/100 Rating From Charity Navigator
DESCRIPTION:Boca Raton\, FL – Spirit of Giving is proud to announce that its strong financial health and ongoing accountability and transparency have earned a 94/100 rating from Charity Navigator’s Encompass Rating System. This score designates Spirit of Giving as an official “Give with Confidence” charity\, indicating that our organization is using its donations effectively based on Charity Navigator’s criteria. Charity Navigator is America’s largest and most-utilized independent charity evaluator. Since 2001\, the organization has been an unbiased and trusted source of information for more than 8.5 million users annually. \nThe Encompass Rating System is a comprehensive evaluation tool that analyzes nonprofit performance based on four key indicators\, referred to as beacons. Currently\, nonprofits can earn scores for the Finance & Accountability\, Impact & Results\, and Culture & Community beacons. In the coming months\, nonprofits will also have the opportunity to earn scores for the Leadership & Adaptability beacon. \nThe Encompass Rating System enables Charity Navigator to increase the number of nonprofits it evaluates\, growing from 9\,000 to 160\,000+ nonprofits evaluated. In order to be more inclusive of smaller and more recently established nonprofits\, the system uses a combination of automated methods and technology-supported manual research and analysis to provide donors and nonprofits with four clearly visualized indicators of organizational effectiveness. \n“We are delighted to provide Spirit of Giving with third-party accreditation that validates their operational excellence\,” said Michael Thatcher\, President\, and CEO of Charity Navigator. “We are eager to see the good work that the organization is able to accomplish in the years ahead.” \n“Our Charity Navigator rating of 94 out of 100 through their Encompass Rating System is further validation that our supporters can trust our commitment to good governance and making the world a better place\,” said Lindy Harvey Executive Director of Spirit of Giving. “We hope that it will introduce our work to new supporters who can help us advance our mission to create alliances with nonprofit organizations by sharing resources and providing education to strengthen our communities.” \nSpirit of Giving’s Encompass rating and other information about charitable giving are available free of charge on charitynavigator.org.
