SPRINGFIELD, Va.— Hope For The Warriors’^® strong financial health and commitment to accountability and transparency have earned the national military nonprofit a four-star rating from Charity Navigator, America’s largest independent charity evaluator. This is the eighth consecutive year that Hope For The Warriors has earned this top distinction.

With more than 1.5 million American charities, Charity Navigator aims to accentuate the work of efficient and transparent organizations. According to Charity Navigator, only three percent of rated charities have attained at least eight consecutive four-star ratings.

Since 2002, Charity Navigator has evaluated the fiscal responsibility and accountability of nonprofits, only awarding the most fiscally responsible organizations a four-star rating.

“Providing the best care for our country’s warrior community is our top priority, and that care demands transparent fiscal responsibility,” said Hope For The Warriors CEO Robin Kelleher. “A four-star rating doesn’t just happen; it requires an established organizational culture and value of accountability.
