Irving Cares earns 4-star rating

Irving Cares’ sound fiscal management practices and commitment to accountability and transparency have earned it a 4-star rating from Charity Navigator, America’s largest independent charity evaluator. It’s the 7th time in the last 10 years that the nonprofit has earned this rating.

Since 2002, using data-driven analysis, Charity Navigator has awarded only the most fiscally responsible organizations a 4-star rating. In 2011, Charity Navigator added a second dimension of Accountability and Transparency to its rating methodology. It now reviews 17 governance and ethical practices as well as measures of openness, providing information on its web site for each of the charities it evaluates.

“Irving Cares’ coveted 4-star rating puts it in a very select group of high-performing charities,” according to Ken Berger, President and CEO, Charity Navigator. “Out of the thousands of nonprofits Charity Navigator evaluates, only one out of four earns 4 stars.”

Teddie Story runs Irving Cares and she notes the importance of the rating.

“In the current economic environment, it’s important our donors trust that we’re using our funding wisely to accomplish our goals of identifying and providing Irving residents with temporary assistance and training to promote self-sufficiency,” Story said. “Our 4-star Charity Navigator rating demonstrates to our supporters that we take our fiduciary and governance responsibilities very seriously.”
