Benchmark for Scoring

Impact scores of financial counseling programs are based on the estimated income boost per dollar spent. We compare this cost-effectiveness measure to a benchmark for the program type. The benchmark for financial counseling nonprofits is the cost to operate the program. We award nonprofits 80 points if they can increase income by between 85% and 150% of the cost of the program and 100 points if they can do so by greater than 150% of their program cost. We estimate that beneficiaries receive an $82 (2019 USD) income boost per 1-point increase in credit score. Program increases income by 150% or more of the program cost.

Methodology

This impact score was determined through the Financial Counseling methodology which is fully detailed in the Charity Navigator Guide to Ratings. Analysis conducted in 2024 by Charity Navigator using data submitted by the nonprofit, theory and evidence from scientific research studies, and public datasets.
