GreatNonprofits.org award is based on positive online reviews from donors, clients and volunteers
SACRAMENTO, CA (November 5, 2014) – RedRover© announced today that it has been honored with a prestigious 2014 Top-Rated Award by GreatNonprofits, the leading provider of user reviews about nonprofit organizations.
“We are excited to be named a Top-Rated 2014 Nonprofit,” says Nicole Forsyth, President and CEO of RedRover. “Our mission of bringing animals from crisis into care could not be achieved without our supporters. We are proud of our accomplishments this year, including sheltering numerous dogs rescued from puppy mills, bringing awareness to the problems facing domestic violence victims and their pets, and working with teachers to help children develop empathy for animals. The Top-Rated Nonprofit award was based on the large number of positive reviews that RedRover received – reviews written by volunteers, donors and people we’ve helped through our programs.”
One supporter wrote, “Red Rover is simply one of the best animal welfare organizations around. I have been a volunteer and donor for years. They not only respond to immediate needs of animals in emergency situations, they help women getting out of violent situations do so knowing that their companion animals will be safe. They help people who want to help animals but lack the funds be able to provide veterinary care for these animals. They are responsive and respectful to volunteers and donors. They make excellent use of their funding. RedRover is the best and I’m proud to be affiliated with this fine organization.”
In addition to the award, RedRover has been added to GreatNonprofits #GivingTuesday Guide – an interactive guide to top nonprofits throughout the years. Look for this near the holidays on GreatNonprofits.org.
“Savvy donors want to see the impact of their donations more than ever,” said Perla Ni, CEO of GreatNonprofits. “People with direct experience with RedRover have voted that the organization is making a real difference.”
Being on the Top-Rated list gives donors and volunteers more confidence about nonprofit organizations’ credibility. The reviews by volunteers, clients and other donors show the impact of RedRover’s work that resulted in this community recognition award.
