What Charity Navigator Says:

"The Conservation Fund has earned our seventh consecutive 4-star rating. Receiving four out of a possible four stars indicates that your organization adheres to good governance and other best practices that minimize the chance of unethical activities and consistently executes its mission in a fiscally responsible way. Only 2% of the charities we rate have received at least seven consecutive 4-star evaluations, indicating that The Conservation Fund outperforms most other charities in America. This “exceptional” designation from Charity Navigator differentiates The Conservation Fund from its peers and demonstrates to the public it is worthy of their trust."
