Specifically, Charity Navigator rates a charity on the responsibility of its day-to-day functions, as well as its position to sustain programs over time. Each charity then receives an overall rating of zero to four stars.

Nonprofit organizations are growing fiercely and donors should know that their hard-earned dollars are being put to good use. This is why Charity Navigator is a great tool for donors and potential donors to get essential information to give them confidence in Frederik Meijer Gardens Foundation.
