For the sixth year in a row Habitat Charlotte has earned a coveted Four Star rating from Charity Navigator, America’s largest independent charity evaluator.

Less than 4% of all US nonprofits are recognized with four stars, the highest attainable rating awarded by the agency. Rating criteria include financial stewardship of donor dollars and overall production efficiency.

For the fiscal year just ended, over 90 cents of every dollar donated to Habitat Charlotte went directly into programs serving low-income families.
