NR
Not ratedCharity type not yet classified — grade withheld

Our scorecard uses a different template for different kinds of charity — an operating charity is measured differently from an endowment or a grant-making trust. This charity's type has not yet been classified, so a letter grade is withheld rather than assigned using a template chosen by default. That says nothing about the charity itself. Its filed figures are shown above, and it will be graded once its type is classified.
