WAVES Receives the GuideStar Exchange Seal as a Demonstration of its Commitment to Transparency

22 Dec 2011by

WAVES for Development has received the GuideStar Exchange Seal, a leading symbol of transparency and accountability provided by GuideStar USA, Inc., the premier source of nonprofit information. The Seal demonstrates to WAVES’ support-base our deep commitment to nonprofit transparency and accountability.

We have worked hard to showcase our progress toward our mission, and our core values of being honest and transparent about our work, to our constituents.  As a GuideStar Exchange member, we use their platform to share a wealth of up-to-date information about our work to our supporters and GuideStar’s immense online audience of nonprofits, grantmakers, individual donors, and the media.

In order to be awarded the GuideStar Exchange Seal, WAVES had to fill out every required field of our nonprofit report page on www.guidestar.org, including our annual report, photos, videos, etc.

I encourage you to check out our profile on GuideStar to see what we’re all about. We are engaged in exciting Education and Surf Voluntourism initiatives in Peru, and we are thrilled to have another platform for communicating our advancement and progress.
