4 Cheers for 4 Stars!

We are proud to announce that, for the fifteenth year in a row, International Relief Teams has received the highest possible rating from Charity Navigator, America’s largest charity evaluator. This coveted rating (4 stars) represents our sound fiscal management and our proven commitment to being accountable and transparent to you, our valued donor.

4 facts about our 4-star rating:

1. According to Charity Navigator, less than 1% of charities they evaluate have ever received 15 consecutive 4-star ratings.
2. Since 2002, using objective, data-driven analysis, Charity Navigator has awarded only the most fiscally responsible organizations a 4- star rating.
3. Charity Navigator’s rating system examines two broad areas of a charity’s performance; their Financial Health and their Accountability & Transparency.
4. Charity Navigator’s ratings show you how efficiently we will use your contributions today, how well we have sustained our programs and             services over time, and our level of commitment to good governance, best practices, and openness with information.

“Attaining a 4-star rating verifies that International Relief Teams exceeds industry standards and outperforms most charities in your area of work.” said Michael Thatcher, President & CEO of Charity Navigator. “We are proud to announce International Relief Teams has earned our fifteenth consecutive 4-star rating. 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.”
