Sankara Nethralaya is one of the very few large non-profits where the transparency in funds raised and spend is 100%. One of the extremely rare organization where approximately 98% of the funds raised go to the intended service. Charity Navigator has awarded the highest possible rank of four stars.
I have been serving the community for over 22 years in various capacities, supported and donated to numerous non-profit organizations over the years and never encountered such transparency in a large non-profit organization. Sankara Nethralaya within a few weeks after the donation, sends the beneficiary name, their address, picture, tag number, surgery location to the donor.
One of the main reasons for joining the core volunteer group was the transparency, knowing where my money is going along with the Charity Navigator’s highest four-star rating and the less than 2% overhead.
I know where my donation is going: " I have been serving the community for 30 in various capacities and donated to numerous non-profit organizations over the years. Almost in every case, I do not know what was happening to my donation, and rarely I get to know the beneficiary. Sankara Nethralaya is unique in that aspect. Within a few weeks after my donation I get to see the beneficiary name, their address, picture, tag number, surgery location in a PDF document. I have never seen an organization with such transparency to the funds donated, and no wonder Charity Navigator awarded the highest possible rank of four stars. Now I know where my money is going, and happy to do more of this and encourage my friends to replicate"
