When deciding where to donate their hard-earned dollars, discerning givers invariably turn to Charity Navigator, America's largest independent charity evaluator.

Using a four-star rating system, Charity Navigator rigorously measures the efficiency and sustainability of charities, publishing an astonishing 25,000 ratings since 2002.

Year after year, the African Wildlife Foundation is among the top-rated organizations, receiving four stars seven years in a row.

We are proud to be a top-rated charity, and pleased to highlight our strong standing among this prestigious group:

• AWF is one of ONLY 45 organizations that received the highest rating possible seven years in a row.
  
• We are the ONLY environmental or conservation organization to receive four stars seven years in a row.
  
• AWF ranks 11th among organizations with a four-star rating for seven consecutive years; excluding universities, we rank 6th.

Through outcome-driven programs in 11 African countries, combined with rigorous financial stewardship, AWF is putting every dollar we receive to work for Africa's wildlife and fragile wildlands. Together with our members and other supporters, we are committed to ensuring that the unparalleled natural wealth of the continent endures for generations to come.
