How accurate are the various online nonprofit evaluator rankings?
Ever mindful of being good stewards of donated monies, United Way of the Greater Triangle is open and transparent about its finances. Our 990 is posted on this website. A variety of on-line charity evaluators rank our United Way, along with other nonprofits, based on varied criteria. Innocuous changes can often impact these rankings. For example, UWGT awarded its 2008 donations in January of 2009 and this caused a lower score on some evaluation sites than in previous years when money was awarded in the same year it was pledged. We are always available to talk to donors and concerned individuals about UWGT finances.
