WellLife Network Awarded Platinum National Recognition by GuideStar
WellLife Network, one of the region’s largest nonprofits, proudly announces that it is the recipient of the 2020 Platinum GuideStar Nonprofit Profile Seal of Transparency. This is the fourth consecutive year that WellLife Network has earned a platinum rating. This award is the highest level of recognition offered by GuideStar, the world’s largest source of nonprofit information. GuideStar’s evaluation method focuses on metrics related to progress and results based on a charity’s stated mission, and awards ratings resulting from the level of transparency in reporting. Only three percent of the more than 1.8 million nonprofits evaluated by GuideStar, nationwide, have achieved this Platinum rating. By updating our GuideStar Nonprofit Profile to earn a Platinum Seal, we can now easily share a wealth of up-to-date organizational metrics with our supporters as well as GuideStar's immense online audience, which includes donors, grantmakers and our peers.
“This award is timely as our agency is coping with the COVID-19 crisis,” said Sherry Tucker, CEO of WellLife Network. “Now in times of heightened awareness, operational efficiency is more important than ever. As WellLife Network faces the challenges of this pandemic, we pride ourselves in receiving the GuideStar Platinum Seal. This highly-regarded recognition is further validation of WellLife Network’s steadfast commitment to upholding operational transparency, accountability, and improved performance.”
In addition to transparency, the organization excels in the effective use of funds. Ninety percent of all expenses go directly to program services.
