CharityWatch is unable to rate this organization due to how it is structured. This does not imply a negative or positive evaluation.
Some charities are composed of hundreds of separately controlled, local affiliates:
If a charity's local affiliates are governed by local volunteers that primarily raise and spend donations within their own communities, CharityWatch is often unable to provide a rating. This is because there are no audited financial statements available that include the activities of all of the charity's local groups. Such local charities are often relatively small and not uniformly required to file audited financial statements or full tax forms with the IRS and other government offices. In addition, their financial documents may each reflect different financial periods, making an evaluation of how efficiently the group operates as a whole impracticable, if not impossible to perform. CharityWatch does not currently offer separate ratings on small, local charities.
If a charity publishes consolidated/combined audited financial statements that include the financial activities of its national office as well its local groups, CharityWatch is often able to analyze this document, along with the tax forms of its largest entities, and provide a rating that reflects how efficiently the charity raises and spends public dollars on the whole.
