Announcing An Exciting New Strategic Partnership That Puts Impact At The Center of Giving

At Charity Navigator, we have dedicated twenty-five years to pioneering in the field of charity evaluation, with the mission of making impactful giving easier for all. We recognize that the nonprofit sector continues to face a significant challenge: the demanding and often labor-intensive burden of impact reporting. When nonprofits struggle to effectively demonstrate their outcomes, donors and funders lack the clear, essential information they need to give with confidence. 

We are therefore proud to announce our partnership with True Impact and YourCause from Blackbaud.

This initiative represents the logical next step in our commitment to ensuring that every giving decision is guided by data and transparency. It brings together a unique set of assets:

• A proven, rigorous methodology developed for guiding nonprofits in measuring their outcomes.
• A user-friendly and intuitive reporting platform.
• A comprehensive distribution network that not only reaches Charity Navigator’s rating users, but also reaches corporate philanthropy programs, and employee giving platforms.

This alliance is uniquely designed to provide donors with valuable data to inform their giving decisions, while simultaneously offering nonprofits a scalable solution for impact reporting that they can share with multiple audiences.

A Scalable, Collaborative System

This collaboration strategically combines Charity Navigator’s credibility, broad reach, and infrastructure with True Impact’s methodological rigor, and Blackbaud’s extensive network of leading purpose-driven brands.

Nonprofit organizations are invited to participate in the Charity Navigator pilot, starting today. Participants can create or build upon existing comprehensive impact reports using True Impact’s universal social impact reporting system. These reports are designed for reuse with multiple donor audiences across various platforms.

Jointly with our partners, we will continue to refine the network to offer the sector’s first scalable system for outcomes reporting. This system allows nonprofits to report once and have their results inform the decision-making processes for thousands of funders across multiple platforms.

This partnership is a significant development for the entire charitable sector. By offering nonprofits a streamlined solution for showing their impact and empowering donors with the data they need, we ensure transparency and effectiveness in every giving decision.
