Family Centers Earns 4-Star Rating from Charity Navigator
 For the 11th time in the past 12 years, Charity Navigator, the largest independent evaluator of U.S. charities, awarded Family Centers with its 4-star rating for outstanding fiscal management.
The 4-star designation is Charity Navigator’s highest honor, and indicates Family Centers adheres to sector best practices and executes its mission in a financially efficient way. Only 17 percent of organizations evaluated earn three or more consecutive 4-star ratings.
“The nonprofit sector is advancing and expanding.,” said Michael Thatcher, Charity Navigator’s President & CEO. “As our organizations evolve, so do the desires and interests of our supporters. Astute donors are yearning for greater accountability, transparency, and for concrete results. This exceptional designation from Charity Navigator sets Family Centers apart from its peers and demonstrates to the public its trustworthiness.”
Forbes, Business Week, and Kiplinger's Financial Magazine, among others, have profiled and celebrated Charity Navigator’s unique method of applying data-driven analysis to the charitable sector. Charity Navigator evaluates ten times more charities than its nearest competitor and currently attract more visitors to its website than all other charity rating groups combined. Its data shows that users of Charity Navigator’s site donated more than they planned to before viewing its findings. Last year, Charity Navigator influenced approximately $10 billion in charitable gifts.
