ERGF earns GuideStar "Gold Transparency" certification

Earth Resource Guardian Foundation recently earned “Gold Transparency” certification from GuideStar, a leading organization specializing in non-profit review and analysis.

Over 1.5 million non-profit organizations exist in the United States. Of these, only 5% have earned a Transparency award from GuideStar, and of these 5%, only 1 in 5 have earned “Gold” status. Thus, this puts ERGF in the top 1% of United States non-profit organizations in terms of transparency and honesty. 

Gold Transparency should give the public an assurance that ERGF is sincere about its Vision, projects, people, and finances. We are a lean organization. Our executive staff do not take a salary, and Program development and execution is always top priority. Gold Transparency is just one way we show it.

While ERGF is proud to obtain “Gold”, the second-highest certification available, we continue to work to achieve GuideStar “Platinum”, which we hope to secure for 2025!
