Stars for Stars Assessment

Assess and improve your organization’s charity ratings

Funding is always tight and increasingly donors give to organizations they trust. You need a way of demonstrating that your organization is worthy of donors giving to your cause. Missionwell can review your organization’s public-facing charity ratings and provide an actionable plan to establish or improve your ratings, leading to increased donor trust and funding for your cause.


With Missionwell’s Stars for Stars assessment, experienced professionals will help you shine with stars. We will assess the current situation, and prepare a roadmap to recognize or enhance activity areas recognized and rewarded by Charity Navigator and Candid. As needed, implementation support is also available for any action plans.

Since late 2022, Charity Navigator ratings have become complex. Beyond the financial assessment historically comprising the rating, program impact, leadership and culture are now evaluated. Over its 15 years of history, Missionwell has brought transparency and accountability to our Business Partners. Our financial expertise and strong practices yield correct and easy-to-understand financial statements, thereby giving executives and board members what they need for decision making. This transparency and organization translates into a head start on great ratings with the rating agencies.

Don’t let your organization miss out on crucial funding from larger donors!

Getting started is easy: we can quickly tailor an affordably-priced proposal for your needs after an initial consultation. Once accepted, you will meet with your facilitator and get started with the assessment. Request a quote for your Stars for Stars assessment today!

Your devotion to excellence should be mirrored by ratings. Don’t miss out on funding opportunities, but instead reinforce donor confidence to secure increased support. You have more control over your ratings than you think!

A note to our current business partners: Your service package may already have moved you towards stardom! If you elected a full-service accounting & finance office package, more of the Candid transparency policies are already complete and in place. In addition, your financials already correspond accurately to Form 990, allowing you to calculate expected Charity Navigator ratios more accurately.
