Very happy to have all three badges for GlobalGiving.

“GlobalGiving performs rigorous due diligence on every organization in the GlobalGiving community in order to ensure they are performing charitable work in a transparent and accountable manner, and that they meet local requirements for registration with their local government.

We collect and review documentation for every organization, including its legal documents, financial records, program materials, and lists of senior staff and board members, in order to validate that the organization is running the project as described. We also evaluate the organization's capacity to implement activities, and communicate about its work, and we research the organization's relationship with previous funders. Finally, we ensure that the organization is compliant with anti-terror guidelines and international guidelines for philanthropy.

Once they've been vetted and added to the GlobalGiving community, each organization is required to submit quarterly project reports, including activities, accomplishments and results of the project to-date. These reports are emailed to donors and publicly available on the project page so supporters can see how their donation is being used and what progress has been made. We also conduct a thorough due diligence renewal on all organizations every two years.

Beyond what's required for participation in the GlobalGiving community, our nonprofit partners have the opportunity to share extra information about the effectiveness of their work. Organizations can share information about how they listen to their stakeholders, test out new ideas, and improve their programs and services based on what they learn from data and feedback.”
