For 3rd Year Running, Oceana Receives 4-Star Rating
BY: Emily Fisher
For the third year in a row, Oceana has received a 4-star rating from Charity Navigator, the largest independent evaluator of charities in the U.S., which recently updated their charity ratings.
Our 4-star rating is due to our outstanding organizational efficiency ratings. In other words, we put your money to work.
According to Charity Navigator CEO Ken Berger, “only 13% of the 5,500 charities we rate have received at least 3 consecutive 4-star evaluations, indicating that Oceana consistently executes its mission in a fiscally responsible way, and outperforms most other charities in America.” He also stated that the designation “differentiates Oceana from its peers and demonstrates to the public it is worthy of their trust”.
So in case you were on the fence about donating, we think this makes it pretty clear: your donation will make a difference. You can check out Oceana’s full Charity Navigator profile for more details.
