"The North Texas Food Bank's coveted 4-star rating puts it in a very select group of high-performing charities," according to Ken Berger, President and CEO, Charity Navigator. "Out of the thousands of nonprofits Charity Navigator evaluates, only one out of four earns 4 stars – a rating that, now, with our new Accountability and Transparency metrics, demands even greater rigor, responsibility and commitment to openness. North Texas Food Bank supporters should feel much more confident that their hard-earned dollars are being used efficiently and responsibly when it acquires such a high rating."

"We want our donors to trust that we're using our funding wisely to feed hungry children, seniors and families across North Texas," said Jan Pruitt,. "Our 4-star Charity Navigator rating demonstrates to our supporters that we take our fiduciary and governance responsibilities very seriously, and we are incredibly proud of the fact that donating $1 to NTFB can provide access to 3 meals."

The rating for the NTFB and other information about charitable giving are available free of charge on www.charitynavigator.org.
