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.

Reasons to look carefully (1)

These structural observations are drawn from public data and are worth considering before a donation. They are not allegations of wrongdoing, and they don’t affect the charity’s letter grade.

  • Reserves high for operating size
    Reserves cover ~225 months of expenses on $477K revenue — very high for an operating charity this size

Each signal is a data-driven observation, not a judgement. They fire automatically from the figures filed with Charities Services. A charity can address any of these by filing fuller disclosure or updating its officer register. Methodology: /about/methodology/concern-signals.
