Falls Hunger Coalition earns standards seal

Falls Hunger Coalition of the Falls announces that it has been awarded the Charities Review Council “Meets All Standards” seal indicating that it meets all 16 of its accountability standards.
Nonprofit organizations such as Falls Hunger Coalition Food Shelf earn the seal by voluntarily participating in the council’s online Accountability Wizard. The Accountability Wizard is available to all nonprofit organizations soliciting in Minnesota; and addresses a nonprofit organization’s performance in four critical areas: public disclosure, governance, financial activity and fund raising. By participating in the Accountability Wizard, nonprofit organizations can demonstrate responsibility, integrity and transparency to their constituents.
Falls Hunger Coalition is now listed as a reviewed organization on the online Giving Guide of the council’s Smart Givers Network, www.smartgivers.org, and the council’s Smart Giver newsletter distributed to more than 18,000 subscribers in Minnesota. The listings help a nonprofit organization demonstrate its commitment to accountable ethical practices to the public and that it is a trustworthy organization. The council’s Smart Givers Network is the source of unbiased information where smart givers come for help and resources on responsible giving. The giving public can investigate an organization’s mission statement and programs, so they can be sure of what their money supports and determine whether it meets widely accepted standards.
Falls Hunger Coalition is a food shelf whose mission is to “eliminate hunger in Koochiching County.” We are a community-supported organization and are dedicated to providing accountable and transparent measurements to our supporters.
