Charity Navigator has updated the way it analyzes nonprofit organizations, and NCCF remains in its top tier. Only three percent of the charities they rank nationwide have received this ranking six times in a row, prompting Charity Navigator to develop and name NCCF to a new category that they call the \"exceptional\" designation.<\/p>\r\n<p>The nonprofit watch-dog now looks at a more indepth series of metrics, including financial performance; accountability and transparency; and accessibility of key information from our website. This is the second rating period using its new approach to evaluations.<\/p>\r\n<p>&ldquo;In these difficult economic times, we&rsquo;re thrilled to give donors more information to help them determine which charities they support are efficient and accountable,&rdquo; said Ken Berger, president and CEO of Charity Navigator.<\/p>\r\n<p>The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.charitynavigator.org\/index.cfm?bay=search.summary&amp;orgid=5534\" target=\"_blank\">NCCF page<\/a> on Charity Navigator graphically depicts at-a-glance how we rate in these various categories.<\/p>\r\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.charitynavigator.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">Charity Navigator<\/a> describes itself as \"American's premiere independent charity evaluator.\" Read more about the new rating system <a href=\"http:\/\/www.charitynavigator.org\/index.cfm?bay=content.view&amp;cpid=1288\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.<\/p>","excerpt":"We now also qualify for the new the \"exceptional\" designation.","url":"\/news\/nccf-receives-charity-navigators-top-fourstar-rating-for-sixth-time","publishedAt":1370532000,"media":[],"enableComments":false,"inMenu":false,"meta":null,"ordinal":0,"orderChildrenBy":"","id":"8933ac50bdf34da8b6d437143cbeb8c2","parent":"31bc018cb0694068b20999237c54f462","node":45028,"created":1370532043,"modified":1528717325,"fresh":1,"type":"post","children":{},"relations":{"category":[{"tinyMCE_dummy":"","title":"NCCF News","url":"\/categories\/nccf-news","meta":{"title":"","description":"","excludeFromSitemap":"No"},"ordinal":999,"content":"","excerpt":"","media":"0","inMenu":false,"visibleTo":"Everyone","publishedAt":1536248733,"source":null,"orderChildrenBy":"","id":"1b78a2294942490a941757f68891b9dd","parent":"9fd09d3a1e4f4302a38c86e00a22828b","node":20907,"created":1536248733,"modified":1536248733,"fresh":1,"type":"f9a6b2b005cb46ed8778f11c37e4d3a5","children":{}}]},"permission":"read"}
