Review for GreatNonprofits, Redwood City, CA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I LOVE this organization. Both the idea of having independent, transparent reviews of nonprofits, and the tool itself. Great Nonprofits is well thought out and easy to use. I know from my own work in the nonprofit sector that it is really hard to get objective information on how a nonprofit or its projects are actually performing without investing in lots of research. This is one simple way of capturing that information, that leverages a trend of greater openness. It is an idea and organization whose time has come!!!

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

Simple idea that doesn't require a massive organization and a bazillion dollars to run.
